Default getting tints this week...need opinions

like i said, im getting tints this week but im unsure about what percentage to get. what are your guys opinions on what will look best with the yellow. keep in mind that the legal limit here in ct is 35% which obviously isnt very dark at all.

Go dark, really dark, all the way around. Used to think it was more mature and classier to leave a little see through on the sides, but now the first car I didn't go limo all the way around(mustang) I want to rip the sides off and go darker. Maybe just me though, and not sure how strict cops are in your area. Where I live only state troopers will give you a ticket because they are the only ones with the meter. I don't see them too often.

when i was living in ct i put 20% on my car. i never had any problems with police or whatever. i think 35% is a little too light IMO.


now that im in vegas... i had 5% put on my car.

35% is almost not even noticable. If cops aren't strict where you are, go 10% all the way around or 10% up front, 5% in back. Anything above 20% is a waste, and 20% is pushing the line of not enough. I think dark tint would look awesome with the yellow.

Got 20% on my car... During the Day I wish I would have got 5%, but at night I'm glad I got 20%. 20 is great though, looks really good so I really have no complaints. Few Pics...
