Im goin to tint shop tmrw and I cant decide what should I do... I cant decide between 5% rear and nothing on front , or 30% all around , what you guys think?

 

i think the darkness of tint is subjective and only you can decide what to do. If your tint shop is any good they'll have a way of showing you how different darkness of tints look on your car.

Sorry, but this is one of those questions that will only result in people saying "X is best" while the other 50 percent of posters will tell you "Y is best".

Get what you want, it's your car.

 

How's about www.tintlaws.com

The rest is up to you, but if you live in certain states, at least this will keep you away from potential tickets.

 

Don't go with none on the front... Regardless of what the % winds up being, tint it all the way around... What color is the car?

And I'm sure that the place you are going to have it done knows the law in your state... But it definitely wouldn't hurt to look at them before having it done just to be on the safe side.

 

i put limo tint on my back windows, and only dark tint on the front (sorry i dont know the percentage of the tint).....but i regret not getting the limo all around. who knows, maybe you'll feel the same way if you just dont get the limo tint all the way around in the first place.

 

What state your from? There are Tint Laws in every state. Here in Nevada, you could limo tint all around except the front window...of course

 

Your link didn't work for me. I suggest an alternate if you have problems too.

I live in IL so its either limo in the rear and nothing on the front or 35% all around , but I was thinking about 25%-30% so its just bit darker , I dont think 35% its dark at all...

 

btw my car is red

 

EvolvChicago has the Whirlyball Event in Lombard on Saturday. You should drop by.

 

I can't quite tell exactly what you are saying is just a bit darker from this post... But just in case you have it backwards, 35% is lighter than %25 percent... It is measured by how much light it lets in, so 25% means it lets in less light than 35%... The lower the percentage, the darker the tint is.




And if it was me, I'd go with uniform tint all around.

 

get the tint you want. If you want darker than legal, prepare to pay the consequences. Nothing else needs to be said.

 

That what I meant , the legal combo is 35% all around , but I wanted a bit darker so I think I'll go 25%-30% , I'll see when I'll get to the shop today , maybe the guy will show me some examples and give me some advices, I will post pictures as soon as I will get them done.
Alnielsen - I will try to show up on 26th )

 

Got 30% All around

 

I personally like an even tint all the way around. It throws me off when I see something lighter in the front and darker in the back.

But its your car and I would follow the tint laws in the state. I ended up doing a tint as dark as I can go in the front and matched it all the way around when I first got my car. Now I have another brand but a little lighter than my old setup.

 

i did 35 all around and 60 on entire windshield

 

Looks good man!

 

Yep, looks like it's down or they removed it. I've linked it many times before, but no working this time. It still shows up on a Google search, but can't connect.
Oh well......there are many others including the one you linked or http://www.autowindowtinting.com/ind...splay&pageID=5 and I check this one!

 

Or just get an eye perscription for whatever window tint you want like me.

 

yeah in Detroit you got guys advertising prescriptions and tints...hilarious...
but i got limo's in the back, and 30's front seats. did not get windshield.

 

The funny thing was I didn't even have to ask about it. I was getting my prescription updated for my contacts and the doctor brought it up since my eyes are so blue that they don't block any light. Probably the reason I can't see outside when it's sunny unless I have sunglasses on.

 

I like the 30% that I got , I'll post some better pictures tmrw.

 

^ I'll be waiting...

 

 

Enjoy!
