Im thinking of retinting my back window and little side windows. My car came with tint but its the old tint that has the purple tinge when you look out from inside the car. 35% on passenger and driver windows, limo tint on back and little side ones.

+100, I know that limo looks really good but its almost imposible to see out at night, I would not do it. I have it and...just dont do it. I have it and am thinking of getting it taken off so i can see at night, waist of money [&:]...but id rather do it again that hit something because i cant see behind me.

i have limo tint on the back too.. you'll be okay as long as the person behind you has headlights on. if you have something lighter tinted upfront, you can see them by using your side mirrors

+1 on not having limo in the back. During the day sure its great and looks awsome but at night it can be hell> My brother has 20% in his 92 hatch and at hight that is almost to dark for me but its dark enough for me to handle. I want 25% all the way around right now but the damn laws down here in Texas are screwed up. One law says 25 is legal but for some reason another says 30-35 is the legal. The cops in this area can be real dicks about it. I have to get my 98 redone because someone tried going over the factory tint in the rear and now the glue is all there and I can't get it off so you can't see out the back for ****. I am gonna let the pros redo it plus the rest of the car for like $120 or so.

that's how limo is.. when you don't have it, you want it.. and when you have it, you don't want it

But the benefits it does offer are knowing that the people around you can't see in.. I like sitting in the front seat basically being shaded in. (but i have 15% on front).
ex. my friend in the passenger seat was giving the driver next to us the finger, and the dude started staring at us pissed as ****. (might work with limo, not 15%s lol)

I have 3.6% tint and I love it. Wouldn't trade it for any other tint. Originally had 30% but it was WAY too light, so I got them to put a layer of limo over it. Looks great. Goes with the car color perfectly. Have been complimented by many cops, but pulled over by many. Only 1 ticket for it.

As for the air bubbles - get those fixed. My passenger window is peeling.
