Default Tint?

hey guys. I am pretty sick of people peeping into the interior, so I think I need some light tint

I have a roll of new "Limo" tint that would be legal in NJ.

I use vynl on karts, so i dont think this would be a problem

Would it come out even?

the last thing I want it to look like is one of those old cars with purple tint with big white bubbles on it.

Any suggestions>

thanks

Well i didn't put the tint myself, a guy who works in the tint business here in my town came to my place and he did all the job, basically its a full layer of tint all over the car, wait a bit and then apply the second layer of tint over the first one and voila.

That looks amazing but isn't it illegal? I know it is in Michigan but if I had a sponsor or two for my stang than I would do it but other than that I think I will get limo in the back (5%) and 20% on the driver side and passenger side windows. I think a four inch strip on the windsheild....what you guys think will it look good? Pics of car in gallery.

uhmmmm yeah could be illegal, but here in mexico ... meh lol, i even had tint in my windshield on my last truck, maybe ill add some later in the stang, looks badass and NO ONE can see who is inside the car not even at 1 pm sunlight. Some guys like it light, some others very dark, just posted the pic of my car for u to have an idea how will it look with a lot of tint

Dark tint in my town is a guarantee to get pulled over. I remember a friend of mine had tint on his truck and the cops shined a bright spotlight right at us as we were at a stoplight at night. What an idiot. I would have loved to have shined one right back in his eyes to see how he liked it.

Doing 5% on mine today. The dealer where I bought the car was going to do it yesterday but only 35% I told them then it's not worth it and they made an appointment with another local tinter. I've always had my cars done with at least 5%, my truck is 2.5% and have never had trouble with the law. Pictures coming soon.

i have a 35 on mine, i really wish it was darker, at night time you cant see inside of the car and it looks blacked out, however, in day time, it really isnt too dark, you can tell that a tint exists and it is very noticable but you can still inside the vehicle... cops over here will pull you over even for having a window tint if they feel like it... its rare but ive heard of it happening... and de tint costs another one hundred bux....
