I'm going in for tint tomorrow, white pearl, I was thinking doing 50% on front, and 35% on rear 3 windows... Any comments, of people who have this and like it? I don't want to get to dark.... cops are dicks around here for tint and will cross traffic to give you a ticket

are 50 and 35 your legal tint specs in the state you live in?

i would just get 35 all around...when you have one part darker than the other it doesnt look as good

I live in NY, I frogot what the exact legal limit is... i think it is around 70% Yea.... There is a factory tint on my windows so I think 50 % all around might be the choice... I don't want to get too dark, just some to reduce the temp. of the leather and inside and add A little better look. I think it will look darker too, being on a white car..

If you're looking to reduce the temp inside the car Huper Optik is pretty much the best tint. You pay for it though, I called for a quote about 2 weeks ago and it's gonna run me like 330 + tax.

I do not agree with 35 all around.. Only true if its a drastic difference. Having 35 on the sides and back will make your 50 on the fronts look darker. i had 35 all the way around on my last car and got pulled over weekly. If cops in your area are ****, dont do it.

wow. yea NY is 70 all around. that is really light. that's guna suck, just go for a certain percent all around. is there a difference in having the front versus the rear and windshield? if not, just go with the 35 all around for an even look. although i don't know how picky cops are up there. so yea...

cops here only bother you for the side windows and the front one, you can have as dark as you want on the rear windows and the back

I've had 30% all around for 8 months when I was in CALI and no cop has harrassed me about it. Now I live in WA, and over here it's 35% around I don't think they're gonna bust my ***** for going 5% the legal limit. Do you drive with your windows down usually? Because if you do, I would just get 35% all around it would look odd to have 50% in the front.

yea, i got caught for front tints down here in cali, but that was with a speeding ticket as well. cops don't bust my chops now cuz I don't speed but I... went darker. 20% all around. do cops pull you over in NY just for violating the state tint laws?

Velocity Red RX-8

ahahah cops in new york pull you over for no reason...ive been pulled over numerous times because "it looks like i didnt have my seatbelt on" the cops out here are ridiculous...but i go to penn state and i have come to appreciate how cool new york cops are about some things compared to pa where they do everything by the book....i think 35% is leagal in new york does anybody know for sure?

QBallz

I have 50% front 35% back. I personally like it. It's not CA legal but I havn't been hit for it yet and I've had it 1+ yrs now.

presequel

what exactly is the legal limit in cali?

Rx-A-Ho

The legal limit in Cali is anything on the back and rear passenger and I think 5% on the driver and front passenger.

well here in AZ I have 15% on the front and 5% on the back,on my mine.
That is the legal limit here.
But I live in Arizona , better check at the tint shop ,they should have a list for all states if it is a good shop.

spinstyle808

No tint. How the ladies gonna see you??? Hot car, girls wanna see the stud driving it. The heat only last for a few minutes, after the AC starts kicking in. Suck it up....lol.

skwidd

Very VERY nice.

I would have loved to put limo on the back, to completely black it out.

I put limo on the back of my 85 camaro (20 on the front windows) and it was a PITA to see out of at night. So then I figured since I couldn't see out of it, I'd just throw 2 15"s in the hatch right behind the rear passenger seats.

tints make the car look 5x better. and it makes people wonder who drives it. but if you need a car to get someone... lol

FASTNMEAN8

I say you should do 50% all around make it look even...

P.S.- anyone know the legal percentage in NJ? I think I heard someone say 15%?

i believe it is any tint on rear windshield and rear sides, but none on front sides or front windshield.
