Would you tint a 2015 Nismo with those bad azz Recaros?

CoralZ · 03-02-2015, 06:55 PM

As the title says. I'm worried about tinting because I really like to see the seats as I walk up to the car. They look amazing.

What do you guys think?

DPE G · 03-02-2015, 07:06 PM

I did, FL Heat is hell with no tint, as well as it will help with fading. Real Suede is horrible about fading, not sure about Alcantara. If you want to see the seats hold the unlock button and it will roll down the windows, problem solved.

Yes! &

kenchan · 03-02-2015, 07:56 PM

hahaha... yah, i could see that dilemma. but if that's a dd, probably better to tint it to save the interior from uv. especially down south.

Spooler · 03-02-2015, 08:33 PM

NO tint down here and you die in the summer.

CoralZ · 03-02-2015, 08:42 PM

Very true guys. I completely understand about the heat and UV. I momentarily forgot about the heat with our two day winter we had in South Florida. Haha. The UV thing is true as well. I should know better with a white interior on my Volvo.

All my windows are tinted, event the whole front, 70% on it with a 5% strip at the top.

Woops, I forgot, I got this one tinted with 70% on the Front, not 55%. 55% caused visiability issues in heavy
rain and very dark roads with my last car, 2008 Nissan Maxima.

Tint is required on all vehicles I own in Texas. Too damn hot in the summer here not to. Tint your windows!!

CoralZ · 03-04-2015, 11:48 PM

I hear everybody and I will probably tint but those Recaros are insane looking!! They also feel great and I'm a guy with a bad back. Haha

Zipper 104 · 03-06-2015, 09:15 PM

I recall any tint on what would be the power windows on my Z are illegal here.
On a four-door sedan you can do the rears, but not the fronts. Not that it isn't done though, but not me. I don't need the heat from po po if I were to run into a jerk.

If you lived anywhere but Florida...no tint. Dude the freakin heat as you know is insane in the summer. The tint just makes sense.
