Just wanted to see people setup for they're tint jobs, and your percentage.
My last car Protege5 had the one before the limo tint (can't recall what percentage) all around including drvr pssgr window, i thought it looked perfect.

I'm guessing that would be 5%?

Wasn't it hard as hell to see out of your rear view mirror when you drove at night?

limo is 5%, so the one before it is like around 10-15% which is what I have now and I can see perfectly fine at night

not a really good pic. but it's the only one i have at the moment

front is 50% and rear is 5%

you can see the tint through the pass side, it is darker from the outside than it is from the inside, so when you're driving at night you can easily see out the back.

on my next car i'd do the same tint job personally.

anything darker is asking for it

then again my sister's car is 25% front and 5% rear.

Right now: 30% all around...looks killer at night, but too light for me during the day =(

Last car had 5% on the back 3, perfection, but didn't leave much option for tinting the front passenger and drivers side, plus it had too much of a contrast to the untinted windows....one of my friends had 5% all around, dumb idea, very hard to drive, he regret doing it. Not to mention heatbag as shit

Probably do 20% all around on my next ride, that should be godlike, probably the darkest I would go as well, unless you want to run into driveability issues

sorry, no pics. plus who wants to post a honda after the beemer with the flat back rims anyways? LOL

When i got it done, i told the tinter that i wanted it to be one shade lighter than standard limo shade all around, so it wasn't as dark as some of you think, 15% sounds right.

i have the exact same car with the exact same color, but 35% all around.

yours look a little darker than mine...in a bright sunny day, my tint looks really light, it looks a lot better at night, or when it's not as bright.

5% on the rear - 95 eg.

not baller enough to tint my front windows to get hassled by cops...

to all the guys who say , you cant see shit on a 5% - - you must be driving on roads without lights... i do a rmd - surrey at 10 at night and i see perfectly fine. i also thank the asses who high beam me from behind, they help out too..

Hey what's a good place to get ur windows tinted? and fairly reasonable price? I don't wanna do it myself cos i'm afraid it'll turn out like those stupid bubbly windows.
Only the back 3 windows though and they're all flat so it should be fairly simple (old cars FTW)

That G35 looks nice but i dun like the olympic plates on a white car. probably just me though. Still nice, looks pretty clean.

N-motion does it for $180 on my car, sounds okay, I guess you'd be paying for the installation and not the materials though. But probably worth it
That roof vinyl thing looks good on that GTI, Don't have a car for it though

this is a "heres my car with tints so you can pull me over when u see me" thread

Just by looking at the car i think they would pull the car over regardless whether they saw it on the thread or not.
