Tint picture request...

Hey there...I'm new here, but I'm looking for help with a tint decision. I just ordered a 2007 Blue Slate G35xS and I'm psyched. But I'm having trouble decided on a tint. I want a pretty slight tint. Enough to add some depth to the car, but not enough to block any light. Can you post some tint pictures to help? I'm thinking 50% all around, but I'd like to see some lighter and some darker.

Thanks!

I wouldn't even bother with 50% - it's a waste of money. I have 35% on the front doors and 15% on the back doors and rear window. That is barely anything in the sun and only annoying at night on rare occasion.

I'll try to see about some pictures before too long. I could have sworn I had some with the tint but I guess not. I'll even see if I can manage to get a few pictures from inside the car "looking" out.

Rather than try to tell you what you want like some others here, I'll post what you're asking for. Here's some 35% all around shots, -not my car...

Thanks. I have to admit, the 35% looks pretty good to me. I may need to go with that.

I didn't think the G35xS came out until 2008...
My 07 G35x with 35% all around. It is not dark looking during bright days when the sun shines in through the front. At night it is plenty dark enough that no one can see in side but you can easily see out.

50% is not worth it... minimum to go with is 35%. Here's mine at 20% on all windows.

35% Huper Optik Ceramic Tint
Depending on the light, its either sorta light and easy to see through, or reflective and it kinda takes on the color of the car a bit.

Uggg thanks. I meant 2008 G35xS.

Thanks everyone for the pics. I'm definitely leaning towards 35%.

I asked for 35 on mine. What's strange is my wife got her CX-7 done with 20 and it's the exact same darkness. I'm pretty sure I got 20 and not 35.

Scooby that is definitely NOT 35% unless the picture has very little light in it. I am not even sure it is 20%, it looks much darker than even my 15%. It's so hard to know when you aren't sure of the lighting conditions, etc.
