Any recommendations on window tint for a MCS pure silver w/black top. At first I thought about the platinum tint (good visablility at night) but after looking at the car closely the I think the platinum tint might not look correct with the black window edging and black posts. Any pictures would be appreciated.

Welcome to MCO!

Do a quick search for Window Tint, there's a really good thread that's a few pages back, and has tons of pics on it with peoples' tint jobs.

Silver ... hmmm. I love that color. I would go for 35% or darker all around.
