    I have a full set of green tinted glass out of a comet. I'm thinking about using it on my yellow Maverick build. Just don't know if it would look right or not.

    I voted no... unless the car is going to have some green/yellow 'theme'? But I prefer clear glass anyway... :rolleyes:

    I'd say no unless it's got a John Deere motor. :p

    I've never been a fan of green and yellow being together, now a darker tint would look cool if you ask me but idk.

    I think he is talking about factory tint. If you take a piece of factory tinted glass and hold it so the sun shines through to the ground, you will see it has a green tint to it. All Mavericks and Comets with factor tinted glass, regardless of color, has this green tinted glass.
