Drivers side still not fully cured yet? If you look closely at the headrest area, you can see some "spots" i guess you would call it. How long does it usually take to "fully" cure? a few days? The passenger side was like that at first but seems to be gone now.

Default Wow the 45% is lighter than I thought it would!

Looks good tho! I wanted to be somewhat conservative as well, but went with 35% all around.

Default Thanks! I'm guessing cuz my interior is platinum, so the light interior offsets it so it doesn't

look as dark as say if I had a black interior.
