let's see your tints on your 40th!

LMBmikeZ · 06-16-2010, 05:41 PM

Thanks guys, ya I like it even more today (day after). As far as the night driving goes, I have the Canadian model so I have the rear fog light and so far I haven't had any issues (last night lol).....

Rui Z - I have thought hard about preventing seat damage, I was thinking of going to add a sun strip on the windshield when they tinted it but I decided against it I wanted to keep the front clean...... I think with lots of regular cleaning (interior) of the Z, as always lol. Then with a good solid protection product for the leather once a month or so and they should always look mint!

NewlyIMPORTed · 06-30-2010, 01:49 PM

LMBmikeZ · 06-30-2010, 08:31 PM

pompey · 06-30-2010, 09:40 PM

i have some really good pics in my album of my tint, its 20%

onzedge · 07-03-2010, 10:18 AM

I got this done yesterday at Rocky Mountain Tint in Sacramento. 15% back and quarters. I have to say it makes a big difference. Trying it out this weekend with expected 100 degree temps.

Car is getting the tints on right now...pics to follow!

Goes back in 2 weeks to get clear bra installed along w/ smoked tail lights!

LMBmikeZ · 07-23-2010, 11:27 AM

nice choice for tails, I have had blacked out leds on my old altima and loved them. Can't wait to see how yours look with the 40th! I also want to see someone do the Jspec tails (cause I know it will be done eventually)

BG40thZ · 08-02-2010, 08:43 PM

Goes to the shop tomorrow for clear bra install and I am getting the tail lights and 3rd brake light smoked. They'll have the car for a couple days but I'll get those pics posted up when I get it back

sgthanzo · 08-03-2010, 04:32 AM

'lookin' good guys. I've an appointment this friday to get a 35% all around. 'hope to take pics this weekend to share with the crew. thanks for the references for those who'd posted their pics.

Got my tint work done this weekend. "They Say" Llumnar is the clearest highest quality... I got Stealth color vice the Charcoal. Its a touch more gray then black... I didn't want the super dark clash with the quartz... It doesn't and the best part of that is that with the rear and quarters at 18 % and the sides at 38 % its less noticable, so its highly unlikely that I'll ever get pulled Just for a tint violation. Its just not that starkly different looking down the side of the vehicle between the paint and the tint... oh yeah - I got the windshield strip too...

I love it... getting in the car on a bright sunny day is like stepping into the shade. I'll update this thread tomorrow... For those in Hampton roads - I got it done at Bay Custom tint...
