Anyone have Window Tint?
 

What percentage do you have, and if you could change it, would you? and to what?

I have been looking around on the net, I want to tint my windows basically to protect some stuff inside, but Tint on a Car that's Alpine White? Hard to pull off ugh. Nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find examples on the net too. Checked lots of forums and cardomain ugh.

Go with the silver/mirror - that's what I have on a silver car, looks good on light color cars. 20% all around :thumbsup

theres a law in canada what % you can get on the front and the side.

diff from the states.

30% up front (drivers + passenger) and 100% on all other windows. black.

I have 5% black.. took a few days to get used to driving at night, but i love it, its dark as fuck.. if i could change it, which i plan on doing soon, ill get 2 layers of 2.5% and my whole windshield done 10%

i do a lot of fucking and weed smoking in my car.. its good to have windows so dark that you can just pull over in any public parking lot and go at it

100% = completely clear

beat me to it :D

I like this, but it's too light, defeats my purpose that people see what's inside and bust my window for whatever.

gonna upload another pic of something darker.

5% limo tint is pimp all around, but i don't think it's legal in most states

Same cars, Alot darker, sorta nice but ugh i dont know.

I don't like the silver tint. I think the black looks better. Hubby's Suburban is all black with black windows. The stock tint was somewhat dark, but there was no stock tint on the front two windows. He had 10% (I think) added to all the windows, so the front two are a shade lighter than the rest. You can see out at night, but it's not real easy.

I don't have tint on my car. I have a red Corvette with a tan convertible top, and it would look funny if it was tinted, in my opinion.

I found a guy that did a dark medium all the way around on my car, looks great. Just look for someone that will do that for you. That way you dont get the dark in the back and then the light in the front. Just make sure not to go limo tint and use medium all around.

Yeah tint doesnt work too well on a red car either.. 10% is pretty strong, 5% is "limo tint" 10% would be very hard to see out at night and illegal.

and for people that dont know tint..

Lower The Number = The darker.

i had 20 on the side windows and 5 on the back window i think.

are you talking radio wise? i dont have tint now and if i have anything worth something at all i put it in the trunk when i go somewhere.

Yeah

I wish I could put it in the trunk. Had my window smashed once for my radar detector (all they saw was the clip on the window, the detector was hidden, oh yeah, they found it anyways haha) So I'am a tad paranoid. Figure Tint and my alarm might help a bit.. I have the clifford responder, so running down to my car with a baseball bat is not out of the question.

woah sweet, you driving your car to the hotel at internext? ill have to bring a crowbar. :1orglaugh

20% all around,

The only tint I've ever liked is 50% all around... Looks stylish on white or black cars.

i'd say go 30% all around and limo(5%) on back window

I plan on doing this soon

hahaha thats why I bought this

http://www.clifford.com/matrix/responder/default.asp

and want to get this

i have 5% all the way around and really dislike it at night. have to put the windows down to make a turn just about.

im paranoid im going to get pulled over for the tint being too dark

fyi the % represents visability... the lower the number, the less visability, generally speaking that would mean darker, but not necessarily =]

I put limo tint on my car and a couple of times jackoffs on the streets have actually put their faces right up to my windows to try to see inside -- WHILE the car was running!!!!!

I guess it is just part of pathetic human nature to want to see what is going on inside a car that has dark tint.

Ya i have 20% on the truck my car used to be limo tint all around before i got rid of it

The tint on this pic looks good to me, can't see through it. Whichever route you go, don't get the silver tint, they look horrible on cars.

Yeah, doesnt it mean the amount of light that can come through?

And the other message

Yeah no kidding, that's the downside of tint ahhaha.. God dammit, you cant win!

Depends on the car...

For normal cars, 35% back three and 50% front two
For VIP cars, 20% all around

Why the difference? Around here, tinted front windows are illegal. Only expensive cars will get away with tinted fronts :2 cents:

I'am finally getting somewhere, having to offer bangbros memberships for tint advice on the beamer forums haha.. Had these pics sent to me..

That grill come with the car?

I would go with 5% all on rear and sides. Maximum privacy, keeps the car cool if its in the sun, and with a white car, the darker contrast will look better/cleaner then a mirror tint or trying to use a lighter tint.

haha, you know how to negotiate :)
Those pics have an awesome tint.

Sweet, I love black on black, insides black too?

He could get pulled over and ticketed here in Tampa. Driving in Clearwater Beach will certainly get him ticketed on the weekends.

I have a blck suburban and just got mine tinted this week as dark as legal. 20% on the back and 30% on the front. The back already had darker windows so it looks pretty tight!

I had 5% on all windows on an old car of mine before. it was very tough to see out of at night.. and I have great 20/15 vision!

i've never had problems with the law with my tint down here in louisiana

Yep black leather interior with a grey gun metal finish (not wood like this one in the picture)

this is what i had on my white acura: Formula One Ultimate 28 http://www.formulaone.com/

i dont use tint i just use duct tape and open the door to see

Adam's Suburban is pretty dark... you can't see in at all. He's never had a problem, and we're in Tampa. Just lucky, maybe.

Go with what your state allows. I actually received a ticket for the tint on window some years ago. Apparently too dark, and was also not done right in some way or another.

:disgust

i went 20% all the way around and wish I would have gone darker in the back. it's just too damn hot here in az, the 20% doesn't cut it.

you can get the front window tinted if you get a doctors note. my friend went i think to the eye doctor and told him he gets migrane headaches from the sun and they write you a thing and you cant get a ticket for your tint.

Limo tint is the only way to travel

i also have 5% black.

funny never knew the infinity had the maserati clock too... cant get them here well import at insane prices... but not regular dealership... nice car

btw 20% is legal here theyll fine you if its more

I need to get my windows tinted as well..

In Aus, the highest you can go upto is 35%

Looks like this on my car

Doomed, that is one nice looking car buddy :)

I prefer slightly tinted windows, though the rest of the family members want them.

That's BULLSHIT...

I know coz I tried that myself. I got my optometrist to sign and certify that I get headaches from sunlight and the cop just laughed.

a) You need to send that note into your DMV and get them to issue you an official letter.
b) The cop will tell you to wear sunglasses!
c) The cop will issue you a ticket and tell you to dispute it if you have a problem.
