lifeisgoodrx8 08-29-2008, 12:08 AM Getting my windows tinted this weekend. I have a red 8 and want dark windows but not limo tint. I think I had 15% on a previous vehicle that I liked but it was on a black vehicle. What % do you guys reccomend, legality not an issue.

5% :) hahaha. i got 5 on all back windows and 35% in the front i kinda wish i would have went a bit darker in the front.
Jedi54 08-29-2008, 12:26 AM if you dont want to be "too" dark, 20%
NgoRX8 08-29-2008, 12:27 AM limo is 5%. if you don't want limo, 15% all around sounds like a good number. it'll look clean.
Easy_E1 08-29-2008, 12:29 AM 5 back 20 front. Check this link for whats legal in your state,,,,

reaper1 08-29-2008, 08:19 AM 35% side 20% small side window and back window .............
NgoRX8 08-29-2008, 12:52 PM there's too much of a difference between 35 and 20. you should try to keep it even all around since legality isn't in issue. it looks the cleanest. unless vision is gonna be a problem...
mattrotary34 08-29-2008, 01:32 PM i have 20% in the front two windows and 5% in the rear three..
works for me even at night.. except for when i have to back up lol
greg985 08-29-2008, 01:58 PM 20% all the way around including the windshield - The cleanest IMO
NgoRX8 08-29-2008, 02:02 PM dang windshield. would love to, but too much of a magnet.
greg985 08-29-2008, 07:05 PM dang windshield. would love to, but too much of a magnet.
I can imagine how strict they are in CA, but here they don't say much. if someone is not sure 35% is nice on the shield aswell
johnny2343 08-29-2008, 07:27 PM 20 all around and top of winshield
greg985 08-29-2008, 07:33 PM 20 all around and top of winshield
looks good, I currently have 20 around and 35 on the shield. Next time I wash it I will post some pictures. My firend has a 350z and he has 5 all the way around, including the windsield. Its stupid dark
johnny2343 08-29-2008, 07:35 PM fook thats too dark
NgoRX8 08-29-2008, 08:06 PM damn, 5 is stupid dark. i gotta see!
greg985 08-29-2008, 08:17 PM damn, 5 is stupid dark. i gotta see!

Macius8 08-29-2008, 09:12 PM 5% is way too dark, you would not be able to see anything through the side windows when turning at night, I have 20% and when the streets aren't lit I can barely see through them
NgoRX8 08-29-2008, 11:08 PM I find my 20% too light. Although i usually lower my front windows at night because i like the breeze and so cops won't see it.
RotaryP7 08-30-2008, 04:33 PM I have a VR as well. Still deciding whether to go with 15% all around or 20%..
