Should I get Tint?

Should I get tint?

If I get tint I'm going with 35% all windows except the windshield of course.

This shouldn't be a question but o well

Black + tint = hotness

Additionally, for me living in South Carolina, at the end of the day when I get into my car after work it is a good 10+ degrees cooler on the inside, at least during the summer.

yes
i have 15s all around
risk is worth it for the look to me. it's only a fix it ticket.
actually only regret is since it's already illegal, i wish i just went with limo tint

btw yea it's harder to see outside so if the weather's nice out i usually ride with both windows down
but in the least when i park it looks so much more nice

Even though tint would look better on all the windows minus the windshield i only got tint on the back 3 windows and it looks good since like expo said in nj its illegal on the front windows. Window tint is more than just looks. it keeps the car a little cooler, and saves the interior from sun damage. I got mine done at Ziebarts and it came with a lifetime warranty
