Re: Window Tint

Pretty much personal preference, my friend has 1 degree below limo tint and I can't see shit at nigh when I'm drivin it. Maybe just me but I want people to see me drivin my car. especially if its all done up

Re: Window Tint

hmm 35% on the side windows and 20% for the back windows should look good.

Re: Window Tint

i personally dont like tint...i like it when i can see other drivers and when other drivers can see me, but its just my personal preference. i love it when my windows are so clear that u dont know i have them.

Re: Window Tint

well, according to a police scanner for tints, i have 3% tint, during broad daylight its near impossible to see into the car, so at night it is hard to manuever the car around tight areas or even around turns, wondering where the curb is. i dont suggest you get anything like this, but ive grown accostomed to it. id suggest the 35% fronts, and 15% rears.

Re: Window Tint

that limo tint isn't really legal anyway...i think 20 is the limit isnt it? depends on what state ur in i guess

the lighter front is a smart idea tho, and i dont want ppl seeing me it's jus weird..lol

Re: Window Tint

Here in Virginia we can't have the front window tinted! It sucks but it's good for night driving! And I was thinking of doing maybe 35% all around. That should look good enough but not too dark and it'll be a good way to cover my sub up since I don't have a cargo cover. Errrr

Re: Window Tint

Yea I have limo also and it's great during the day 'cause it keeps the sun out and the cool in. (if you have ac) but at night you really can't see shit. I have to stick my head out the window to back up at night. I just have mine so no one can see in at all my stuff. Plus it's also good for other co-ed activities during the daytime if you know what I mean. I don't have ac so I always usually have the windows down.

Re: Window Tint

Your right, it would keep the heat down. I sadly don't have A/C either.
