unofrutnately this picture was taken at the scene of the first accident =(, very unfortunate, but there was no damage with the exception of a F*d up splashgaurd.

anyways...


20% solargaurd in the back three, 50% in the front, just to show you graphite/black..

I am getting the 20% tint on the front two early next week, it looks too
nice to pass up.

I considered 35% because 50% is just way too light. at that point, you are better off not tinting at all, or going 35% all the way around, to give that euro tint look.

plain and simple, i feel the need to be a g, in my g...20% all the way around is my reccomendation. during night driving, I have no problems whatsoever with this tint.

I have 35 all around, and it works well, but there are times i feel concerned when backing at night. remember another thing to consider is that the color of the car will effect how dark the tint looks. a lighter color like my DP or a silver or white...etc will create a higher visual contrast to the windows and make the tint look darker from the outside. I had a prelude with a 25% tint but because the car was black it did not look nearly as dark as this.
good luck and get high quality film!

I have 50 all around... I like it, not dark enough to be a problem with the cops or be a hinderance at night, but dark enough to keep the inside cool and the sun out - looks good on DG imo.

Down Here In Miami, 5% Is A Must. I Got 5% All Around Including Sunrooof And Lowered Front Strip. You Can Barely See Through In Broad Daylight. AS FAR AS TICKETS GO, I GUESS THATS THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR PRIVACY AND PROPERLY KEEPING THE SUN OUT.

with my ceremic 30, my car, especially in the morning, feels cooler inside than outside - like stepping in the shade. on the highway, I no longer have to run the A/C at full blast. Its a pretty amazing film

Ceramic tint is the way to go for heat. The stuff rocks but is expensive.

I was thinking about 50% on my windshield but on the other windows it is just too light for me.
