Tint makes a world of difference. How dark are tou going with it?

Was thinking 30% all around. I don't want it too dark.

What are your state limits, look into that before you're doing it.

Most states will typically allow a darker tint on the rear window than the side windows.

A trick to getting darker on the sides is getting either a 60% or 50% tint on the windshield, makes the 'stock' look darker, so your tint isn't as bad.

It's how I get away with 25% on the sides, 10% on the back. Because I have 50% on the front.

I don't want it dark for visibility reasons. I already have trouble driving. Being short sucks.

I'm out guys, night!

I believe 20%-25% will get away from being ticketed easier....

It's actually not dark at all, even in nighttime. I still see just fine.

happytheman · 08-12-2012, 02:15 AM

Night pint!

I have 15% all the way around the car and 45% for the entire windshield. Never been pulled over and I drive a lot. I have 38k on my Z in less than 2 years so it has plenty of exposure to cops and such.

During the day it's like you have sunglasses on at all times, at night you cannot even notice that it's tinted since its so light. Perfect visibility.

Good morning everyone.

Today's agenda has washing the 370 and the Juke real quick first thing. We expect another toasty day -- 106 F. I have to be honest here; I am not a fan of this friggin' heat one bit.

Following the car washing activities will be Opie washing followed by TV shopping with Taylor (Mr. Techfracture). Shopping for big ticket items with either of my sons usually means they shop and I buy (or at least help).

So there you go.

Have a great day and don't forget to use up your daily allotment of reps.

Sounds like a good day. What size TV will you be looking at buying?

He is looking for an LED -- probably in the 47 inch range.

That's one of the joys of living in Fl! You can get away with blowing the tint laws outta the water!
