I suggest spending a few extra dollars and get metallized tint. Cheap tint are dye based and after exposure to sun, they turn purple. I HATE purple tints. Metallized tint won't do that.

Target audiance is COMPLETELY different... and design goal. Sure the RSX is based on the civic, but the arguement is like saying the I30 is an overpriced maxima, which it is. Again target audiance.
