Need to see some tint on Fbodies
Well, I've decided that I want to tint the windows sometime soon, and I'm trying to figure out what percentage to do the rear. Sides are illegal to do in IL, but, I think I may do 35%. Because it'd look dumb to tint the back and have absolutely nothing on the sides. So, that's one that I'd like to see, just to see how dark it really is. If it's not that bad, I doubt I'll get pulled over for it. Then, it's between 5% and 20% for the rear, because there's no limit for it. So, those are the 3 different tints I want to see. Thanks in advance guys.

5% on sides and back on my 02 ws6
5% on just the back on my 96 firebird....was like that when i bought it
I got pulled over by a ******** cop because i was driving to work with my windows down two mornings in a row when I went by him. So he pulled me over and gave me a warning after he made me put them up.
When I had the windows done I just decided to go with 5% because even if I did get 35% its still illegal and apparently they will pull me over on suspicion of tinted windows.

I like the way 5% looks on the rear. That's what I'll probably end up doing for mine. Still need to figure out something for the sides. I dont' really want to leave them bare though. I know some guys that have pretty dark tint, on the sides, around here. And they never get pulled over. But, I don't want to chance it, being on probation and all. And, I figure 35% probably isn't all that dark, so maybe they won't even notice.

If the cop is a dick he will pull you over...at least here in PA haha. I asked him what was legal and he said 20% which is what they have on the cop cars. So in terms of tint that 80% which is practically nothing. I guess it just depends on how the cops are. I had to drive the 02 everyday when i was redoin the suspension on the 96, otherwise I usually have the windows down anyway when I drive that car.

As dark as you want in the rear. And you can't have any on the sides. But, I think it looks dumb without any on the sides and the rear tinted. So, if it's not really all that dark, I might be able to get away with it. One of my buddy's has 20%, I think, all around on his 4door '05 F350 and hasn't been pulled over for it yet.

4% on the back, 50% on the sides....never been hassled for the sides here in IL, but it doesn't look tinted during the day (it gives almost a reflection rather than a dark look) but damn the 4% makes it tough to spot stuff out back at night.
