35% is the maximum allowed here on all windows in TX. I think I'll find a tint shop and see if they can show me firsthand what I'll be seeing through the windows of the car before I decide.
I don't want to impair my visibility in any way by tinting but I want to protect the car. I wish they had auto tinting windshields like the glasses :b

Welp right before I got my Escort in the mail and a few days after I got my tint I got a ticket for speeding (@#$) going 80 on Freeway (heh not very fast) I couldn't tell it was a cop behind me. I need to get some getting used to for the back window. I am better now at identifing cars but one of my first nights on the road, thats just bad luck for me!

BTW great pictures of the cars and tint jobs :D

The above pic is 7% I love it but it's hard to see on unlighted roads at night. I never have had to dim my rearview mirror though :D

I alwaystint my cars but w/the Rx8 I want people to see the ***** who is sitting behind the wheel. The tints do lookreally nice though on the Titanium. I might reconsider tintingmine as well. 5% in a car w/such small windows is really dark. If I do do them they wont be darker than 15%

How did you guys tint these windows ?
I went to a local "window-clinic" wich is supposed to be very good (the work I've seen was good) but they did not want to do the rear window.
They said there was not enough room to do the tinting.

Or did they remove the rear window to do the tinting ?
Did they use foil, or did they sprayed the window ?

Thanks

Raul who did mine in OC/LA area got up back there and did them. a pain but came out nice and perfect. no window removal required.

Hi guys,

I always get my new cars done before I leave the lot. Here, we are allowed up to 35% legally on all windows except the front windscreen. :D

Here is a piccy that shows it off pretty well:



Cheers,
Hymee.
