Re: different tint %s

where are you getting it done? i got mine done a little over a week ago. i went with 20% all around, except windshield. i'd say go as dark as you want, but no darker than 28% or 35% on the windshield. driving at night in the rain with the windsheld tinted is really hard.

i took a few pics this weekend, i'll post some when i'm home from work.

Yo, I went with 40% tints. Obviously, it's a subtle tint, but I wanted to go for a clean look without the hassle of being pulled over by cops.

My G Coupe (the one in the foreground) is 35% on the sides, 20% on the back. Other G hasn't been tinted yet. Many more pictures in my profile.

Re: different tint %s

I did mine 5% all around except the windshield. I love the way the car looks. I haven't had any trouble with the cops yet, had it for about two months.
Had a hard time driving for about two weeks then got used to it.

Re: different tint %s

go 35%, I was going to go 20 but I didnt want to hassle with the cops or driving at night it sucks when the tint is to dark. In the day its just perfect and at night its dark.

Re: different tint %s

No, its a 'charcoal' color (aka black). It looks a little different in person and at different angles but not Silver or as reflective like it seems in the pics.

Re: different tint %s

Re: different tint %s

% = how much light gets through.

Re: different tint %s

what does everybody think of lighter fronts and darker back and small side panels? something like 25 in the backs and 35% in the front windows? is that ghetto or alright in ur opinion? i think its kinda gay personally but i might go that rout bc of the bastard jersey cops...>
