so i just got off the phone with this dude from a local tinting shop. the darkest you can go in SC is 35% so i talked to him and he said i could do 20% on back window and 20% on the small side windows. He told me that i could go with 28% on the passenger and driver side windows and he would give me the paper work saying it was legal.

my question is do you guys think that it will look good even tho the tints will be different percentages?

 

I think it would look alright but Im not an expert what is he charging you to do all that if you dont mind me asking cause I was looking to get it done myself?

 

he is charging me 150.00 thats another thing...is that a pretty good price?

RxDoogone...how does it look with the different shades is it bad noticible or just looks idk good lol im sure it looks good cuz you like it but i guess what im asking is the difference in the shades

and i asked him about getting my tail lights done and he said that the tint wont stick? is that true? do i have to go to a head and tail tinting specialist lol jk jk

 

that looks really good man, i got all black interior also so it will deff. make anything seem darker.

did you get the 15% on the backdoor windows also? it looks like you did. thats what i wanna do with mine too

 

i have 5% and like 30% up front. it looks good at cetain angles but after my next tint ticket im getting 5% up front too.

 

150 is a good price IMO just make sure they give you a lifetime warranty that many places give these days

 

oh and look very very close at the tint once its installed mine had little holes and scratches in it! you get what you pay for ..


130 here.

 

try to keep the difference within the 5% range, that way it wont bug you to bad

 

150 hmm if you get it done post pics so I can see what I get for 150

 

Ya I got my whole car done and an eyebrow. All 5% too. $80. BAM! ...and no cop trouble...yet.

 

80? WOW! thats a good price is 5% dark though?

 

yeah i will deff. post pics when i get it done.

and good point about the lifetime warrenty especially if that **** starts to bubble or something i would have a cow

yeah ill try and still between 5% difference because im worried that will bug me a little

and 5% tint is limo tint right? dude i would be screwed at night...haha merging onto a highway mmm coast is clear AND BASH opps lol jk

so is that dude BS'n me about the tint on the tail lights? because i really wanted that done also

 

yea I think they actually use paint for those when they get smoked like that, I have never heard of anyone getting them tinted but I could be wrong

 

Ya but it's worth it. I roll down my windows to back up at night...that's it. And since it's like 80 degrees and not rainy here almost year round here it's usually fine to do that.

Um, about the tint on the tails, you can use VHT Nightshades (I used this for my clear corners), or get it professionally done at a body shop (that's what I did for my tails and heads)...looks sick when it's all done

i got 5 and 35 on the fronts since its illegal to have the fronts in nj.. in the day time it doesnt look too bad at all, its way better than no tint, and at night its very hard to even notice the difference in tints. If you have any doubts about it tho, i would say just get them matching...the worst thing is paying for it and then regretting it

150 is a pretty good price, i got mine for 175 and i really think u get what u pay for when it comes to the cheap tint shops

 

ok well my lazy *** finally took got around to getting a video...i also had an exhaust put on so i took a video of it but you can see the tint that i had done also.

im very please with the outcome of the tint i think it really adds alot of appeal to the car.

 

When deciding mine I think Ontarios laws are only the driver and passenger have to be minimum 35% and I did 15%. No trouble yet. 5% in the back.


I would hardly say blending means to much of a difference I could have easily done 5% in the back 35% up front because you could hardly notice.

ALSO** take into consideration that whatever you put will automatically darkens the remaining windows. No light from the back will mean my 15% naturally looks darker.

 

lmao im an idiot and am already to late to this thread. Meh can you say, free post:D

 

haha man its all good lol...i deff like your rims...powder coated? im wanting to get mine done very soon

 

i know im in myrtle beach but i have 15% all around except for front... no cop trouble! uh ask the shop if they can do watever you want they just dont have to put there name on it. and i only paid like $130ish for my tint... good luck

 

for $30 (on ebay) you can do it your self. It's not hard to do and they come pre-cut.
