Default Had the Windows Tinted!!! "PICS!"

I had the window's tinted to 15% all around

Before:


Window's are down....But oh well...Good Pic





After:





They look kind of light in this picture


You cannot tell but I also had Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Tires installed up front the same day as well. Night and Day from what was on before

Any Thoughts on the tint?!

$190 for every window on the car except the front. Lifetime Warranty

tints always look killer, even my car looked ten times cooler with tints, and that was before it was all blacked out front and rear, but the were pealing up on the side windows, so i peeled them all off ...

but the biggest question i always have is, can you still behind you at night backing up or do you need a mirror out the sunroof inspector gadget style ?
