I have 6%. Was just tested by a cop, lol. You can definitely see through it if you're face is up against the window. **** 200. You got hosed.

i dont think 200 is so bad for an suv. at least around here that would be a good price. usually around 150-180 for a car. suv start at like 200.

I have NEVER been pulled over for my tints (knocks on wood). I have 5% all around FYI. And they have been that way for wellll over a year.

Guess prices are different up north. I got mine for 125 with a warranty and very good professional who did my last car. An Suv that size wouldn't have been much more.

Well, it looks really good. But I don't think I'd want 5% all around.

When I tint my windows I'm thinking 5% on the back windows, 15% on the front side windows, 10" 5% strip on front windshield and 25% to cover the rest of the front windshield. Dark, looks sexy, and can see out of it at night.

my thread titles a joke. i was thinkin of this song where the guy says" 5% tint, so the haters dont get nosy." haha
btw dudes

it seems as though the shop put 15% tint on my jeep. because 2 of my friends have 5% and you can not see through at all when you put your face up to it, but mine you can:crap: same with this kid chris's truck, hes 5% and u can see shit through it

so i dunno, especially since the back windows already were privacy glass, i would imagine with 5% on top of that, that there would be no chance to see through, but no you can see. once we are for sure that the guys didnt 5% it, then we are going to do something about it. already called them up and asked about it and he said no way, they would never screw over a customer. prob didnt have 5% and decided to hit it with 15% and hopefully not get questioned about it.

if you guys look in the rear window pic that you can see the rear view mirror up front, take a look.

Yeah, you definetely got screwed. I have 5% over my privacy glass and can't see in one bit even with nose up to the window. I also have 30% on my windshield so that really helps to keep it dark.

I tell the cops to piss off when they pull me over for window tint violations, then I show them my waiver from the window tint law!

Because I was hit by a drunk driver!

Most tint shops have a meter that they can test what the tint is. Go up there and make them show you on the meter. I paid 150 to get my blazer done with a warranty.

i think my MINI was like 120 all around including windshield and scraping off the old tint

All of you losers whining about how dark it is etc etc....your eyes adjust to the darkness. Just because you sit in a tinted car and you can't see shit (I felt like that the first time I rode in 5%) doesn't mean that the drivers eyes have not adjusted. Also with high powered lights, having tinted W/S at night just isn't as big of a deal in terms of driving dangerously. It is much more dangerous to be blasting your loud *** distracting music than having a slightly darkened w/s.

i agree

loud *** stereo = not hear emergency vehicles = j00 crash into them (i actually was playing a bone thugs song one time with a siren in the background of the song, and i knew it was on the song, yet there really was a firetruck heading directly at me and i didnt hear it becuase it blended in with the song lmao)

but yea 15% w/s isnt hard at all. takes you one night and you're used to it.

i understand some people it really is hard for, but most peoples eyes will adjust. people get in my ride and their like OMG double 5% and 15% w/s how the F do u see?

you get used to it........driving my dads excursion at night with single 5% all around is harder than my car with double 5, becuase im not used to driving his truck becuase i never drive it. once u adjust to the windows and the car with the tint, etc, its not hard
