Give me the VIN here or in the ID S8 thread on FDRX7.com. I'll tell you what it is.

For starters, if this "Oz Spec" FD doesn't have cruise control and a sunroof, it's not legit. I have the VINs of every local FD, I'll be able to confirm it quick enough.

If the tint is in the glass, it will help mask the color of the defroster lines. The lines are applied to the inside surface of the glass, and factory tint is in the middle of the glass.

My 94 glass is slightly tinted. I believe it is the original glass. The driver and passenger windows are slightly tinted also. You have to look at it closely to notice it.

Because it didn't come from a 280hp FD.

so, reviving this...

found a importer via facebook who has found this glass (atleast, one for me) for 450$ shipped from JP to my doorstep.

I thought that was a good deal.

Not sure how legitimate this guy is though, will update with details, and put my faith in paypal buyer's protection lol.

OK here is a line of investigation: Novus Auto Glass is an international auto glass repair and replacement company with franchises in the US, Australia, and Japan. Contact the Novus Dealer in Sidney and get the Novus part number, then call one of the Novus Auto Glass franchises in the US and ask them to order the part.
