let's see your tints on your 40th!
 

hey guys I am going to tint my 40th soon just wanted to see if people could put up a couple posts to show there tint and what % they are rocking on there 40th!

Just so I can figure out how dark I really want to go...........


Thanks and hope you love your Z!

same here...I just picked mine up yesterday and not sure what % will match up well

i know im new here but after having 4 seperate cars with 5% tint, I love it but you might not like driving at night if your not used to it and have to back alot. If I had to choose another tint it would be around 20% for a new car cause ive been stopped twice visiting the gf in GA for the 5% but no ticket ever issued when they found I was from Florida. Im very interrested in this thread as well.

:worthless:

So lets get some pics.......

Go for 20-25% tint and 5% for the rear quarter windows. I have 35% and it's too lite. Based on pictures the 35% looks good, but in person it isn't dark enough. Rememeber, for a dark car a lite tint doesn't look good. A white car could get away with a lighter tint still looking nice.

^^ true I always have dark cars so I always go darker but the 40th is my true baby! First time I ever bought a BRAND new car! I am never selling it!

On my altima i had 5% on the back and 20 or 25% on the front apparently tint shop said I could go no darker on my altima legal in Ontario Canada.

Front tints are "illegal" here and I didn't want the front and rear windows to be different shades, so i stuck with 35% all around. I've happy with it. If my sig pic isn't big enough, you can check out a few other angles in my album:

Can't go wrong with 20% Not to dark but not way to light

Im diggin the 5% all the way around but at the same time with getting 30 now and the gf might have to drive my car as we are getting married in 2 years id say she wont want to drive it. Cant get her to drive my current cars. Your right, 20 may be just right but i do love to stare at people on the highway and they cant see anything but perhaps a shadow:)

haha tint was done today:)

I went with 20% all around in the titanium finish by solarguard films, and I couldn't be happier looks great! I like it more then the tint I had on my old Altima which matched so nice then!

I am currently importing my photos onto my photobucket account so I can post them ASAP!!!.......

As promised my pics from today! Like I said above ^^20% tint all around, hope you like let me know what you think good or bad I dont care it's only the internet..........

I personal love it I think it fits perfect and I can't even think of having it without the tint now that it's on!:driving::happydance:

Thumbs way up there, hows the rear view at night? That shouldnt get you hastled to much either if you do have some pissy cop whos looking for things. Clean looks!

Damn! That's how I wanted my car to look. How's the vision during night time driving? Does anyone know if our windshield has UV protection? I've noticed that since the top of the windshield is in line with the edge of our seats, a lot of times the sun is hitting our seats. I don't want my red seats to start looking like orange, but I also don't want to put up a windshield visor.

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!

Looks real good LMB...I got mine tinted 20% today...I think it looks perfect...I'll post some pictures up tomorrow evening...it's pouring down rain here right now

some ones gotta have a new tint on their 40th! so lets see some more pics!!!!

bump for pics??? especially if some of you got different % or any different styles of tint.....

I am tinting mine on Friday and will post pics when done.

well it finally happened... got pulled over and the meter said 18% so got a tint violation thank god he didnt notice the 32% on my windshield lol

that sucks dude.........

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

40th Window Tint
 

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.

See photos in my albums here:

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

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

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)

Tints are on
 

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 :happydance:

'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...

^^congrats DarkPath

http://www.the370z.com/members/fredz...-370z-40th.jpgi had the dealer install de tint for the price. got it for 37,000 in texas.


why does it ask for Url to add a picture?? i am new and dont know how to upload a picture

congrats on the 40th!

For uploading I would suggest using another image holding site, they will have all codes readily available for you so you can just get the code you need to post on just about anywhere.

Im seriously thinking of windshield tinted. cuz whenever SUVs and big trucks pass by on the road, my eyes kinda hurt :(

Why are you letting SUVs and trucks pass you by??? Go faster!!! LOL

I think he was saying when they are head on.........:ugh2:

Tint on windshiel
 

I just got my windshield tinted and it helps with the heat down here in texas and with the glare. I had a guy at a shop do it for 15 bucks. they had a program to cut the pieces exactly for the 370z. Its been raining but i will get a picture and post it for you.

crazy!! I don't even know if in Canada we can tint the windshield....... I know the laws are even different for the windows on front and back even, so I doubt that the windshield would be accepted either :(



Waiting for pics!!!
