garnet owners with tint !!!!! or others .

I have a garnet fire, and i am tinting it within the week, and was wondering if you guys can give me any input on the tint.

right now i am going with 30 % all around true charcoal solar tint.

anyone have any suggestions or input on what they feel will look good with the garnet color. i want it to blend in nice, i dont want the black molding, chrome lining, or red to over power or be overpowered by the tint.

i really wanted a 50 percent reflective (not mirror) tint, but was advised by my shop that i will have fm / am quality issues in certain areas.

thanks in advance.

Envykillz,
I put 20% on the back glasses and it stills looks like it is too light. I have 30% on the 2 front, don't want any problems seeing or from the cops. Jut make sure they do not put a tint on the back glass htat has too much metal, it will interfere with the radio.
Either way the "G" will look great.
Enjoy.

Merlin.

i did 20% all around. Its kinda dark at night but I think I'll get used to it. When I put in my stereo system, then I'll prolly drive with the windows down at night anyways. But until then, the Bose sucks with the windows down. With the windows up, its good, but it loses everything when they're down.

Just got my Garnet Fire tinted 20% all the way around. I like the way it looks, it isn't too light and it isn't too dark. I went with solargard graphite tint (a deep black color) because I thought that that looked best with the garnet color. I am very pleased with the look.

I did a 35% all the way around. I think it looks classier than 20% and especially 5%.
