5% or 15%?

[x2o 10+ year member]

well do this, go with 15% on the sides and back along with a bar however big you want on the front. drive around for a week or however long it takes and see if you like it, if you want a little darker go back and get your front tinted 35% and itll make a world of a difference.
unless you just want to tint it all at once lol

Haha, definitely going to do it all tomorrow. I find it really hard to make time in my schedule to do thigns like this. I've been trying to get these tints for about a month and a half, then today I just called and made an appointment out of nowhere for tomorrow. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I'd be happy even with 50% all around right now. Haha, no tints is killer in FL. My car is basically an oven while I drive. I basically go windows down all day every day right now no matter what cause if not my car turns into a slow cooker. Plus, my family tends to have complications with UV and skin cancer, so tint will be helpful later on in my life.

Not to mention it looks good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

definitely go 5, at least if you want that 'you can't see me' feeling, if not, do 5 around the back and 15 on the front two

 

[probmxstyle 10+ year member]

I say 15%. You got a dark interior, so any tint is going to look darker regardless

5% all the way around and 15% on the front 2.

im 5% all the way around with 50% on the windshield w/ a 5% sun strip. and i kinda wanna make it 35% on the whole windshield

this is on a silver car. pic's in link in sig.

In mass its sad, 45% is whats legal up front, can't even tell if the windows are tinted until you roll em down and look for the edging of the tint.

Lol in cali 70% is whats legal up front...and in some areas ANY tint is illegal upfront here...pretty gay.

Doesn't really matter whether people can see me or not, the RE audio sticker gives me away //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif.

I personally refuse to do different shades in the front and rear doors, just looks bad IMO. I'm going for a solid % all around except the front windshield //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif.

I'm gonna have to go and see 5 and 15 I suppose right next to each other. I'm still leaning to 15 though. 15 is hard to get pulled over for around these parts, but 5 makes you look like an arrogant teenager, plus the fact I have a system AND I am an arrogant teenager, well, that puts me at a disadvantage. Haha.

go with 5% cus as soon as your going to want it darker later. Just like with subs you're always going to want to be louder. do what YOU want the first time around.

Ah thanks for the post!

I think that looks to dark for my taste on a silver car. Think I'm definitely going to go with 15% after seeing some pics of it on a car. It looks nice on yours, but for my own car I wouldn't like it that dark, plus my car has a lighter theme to it. (no blacked out lights, silver wheels, etc)

Haha, just wanna point out you tell me "Go with 5%" then you tell me to do what I want, hahaha. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

But I think 5% just looks too dark on a silver car for me at least. So I'm thinking I'm definite on the 15.

 

[snfsh79077 10+ year member]

well 5% IMO is good for people who dont want to tint their front windshields because its dark enough not to be able to see in...but when you tint the windshield 15% is the same as 5% from the outside. My buddies f150 has 15% on the sides and back with a 15% bar and 35% the rest of the windshield and in the middle of the day you cant see in it.

...70%? Hardly even worth the $ to get it put on, haha.
