Window Tint Hey guys I have a black TA thats going in on Friday for tint. I'm getting 20% in the back and 35 on the sides because he doesn't have anything darker then 20 as of now because he is new to it. Also the legal limit is 50 so... Anyhow, I would like to see some pics of cars to see what mine will look like. I'll post pics of mine once its done.
I had my old GTP done with 20% all the way around. On a black car it didn't look that dark. I wished I had gone darker. I'll probably do my white T/A in 20% though because I'm sure it will stand out.

I know the whole backing up thing because in our truck you have to roll the window down to see out not a problem. The thing is he doesn't have darker then 20% so thats as dark as it gets. Also I don't like 5% all the way around. I saw one black TA like that and it took away from the body lines I thought and it just didn't look as good. I might end up doing just 20% all around but the local Statie here is a big dick about no front license plate and window tint.

35% is too light in my opinion, go 5%. When it's hot outside, you can just roll the windows up and feel an instant cooling shade. To play it safe, I just roll the windows down when a cop is around. And 5% looks so much better than 35%.
I put 20 all the way around on my wifes car i think it looks really well and it does not really take away from night visablity, i am going to do my car when i get back to the states this month just hope i can find some where cheap to get it done
i've got tint on my camaro and it is 35% on the sides and 20% in the back. I like it mostly cause i havn't been pulled over for it yet. Tint is against the law for any front windows in illinois. Should have just gotton 5% in the back tho cause i can't see out the 20% at night.

I changed my mind and am going 20 all around. I saw a car with 35 on the sides and its just not good enough for me. The car gets done tomorrow (Friday, June 20). Cant wait to get it home. The car is like three minutes away and I am like all nervous anyhow, and I even know and trust the guy.

Well I went 20 all around and only got 20 on the sides. He called me last night and said the car isn't done it will be done this morning then he called this morning and said its not done because the guy who helps him, his son was in a wreck and they couldn't get to it. So I'm going to pick it up shortly with only two windows done and he said he will do the back later and he said that he won't charge me.
