Guys I'm gonna be tinting my car come spring and was wondering what % would look the best? I don't want it too dark but yet not too light either. Color is in sig

20% is dark but doesn't hurt visibility, 35% isn't much tint, and 5% is blacked the F*** out. I wouldn't trade my 5% for anything. But it was more expensive, its not legal and its a lil tough, hell I'll be honest, impossible to see out the back window @ night.

I payed $150 for my 35% all around. I like 35%. Its dark enough so people cant see you too much, but its not dark enough to get fvcked over by the cops.

i think 20% all the way around looks real good, u can still see out the back and yet it is still dark. i have 20% on the back and 2 small side windows, and 35% on the big side windows... works for me.

Good replies. So I hear people say 35% is on the lighter side and 20% is on the darker side, which begs the question...there no such option for 25 or 30%?

1235jeff - go as dark as you can with that black car man, it'll look sweet! If the legal limit is 35, go 35 all around.


Raven_pbr - They can tint the rear glass on the verts. Just gotta watchout for that dot matrix.... If you go to a real tint place and not just have some random guy or a "buddy" do it, it'll be no problem. I have had mine tinted 2x. Replaced the top and back glass a few months back due to hurricane damage. Took the guy about 30 mins to put it in. Real easy stuff.
