Just curious as to who here in this board has tinted their R, and what percentage? I was looking into limo tint, but I am still undecided.

 

I've got the fish tank effect still

 

35% all around

Limo tint

I got our R tinted about 5 weeks ago, very pleased with the results It's 35%, I was a little worried that it would be too dark but it's just about perfect, doesn't hinder night driving much at all.

Any pics of 35% all around?

 

The 15% tint is pretty dark and real dark tint on cars look tacky.
i would suggest a lighter shade...maybe 28% all around and a 9% on your back window. I have 35% on my front 2 windows while the back 3 have 9% and i regret not having fully percentage matched tint all the way around.

mirror tint falls in the same catagory as those different color and rainbow-bright tints. its TRENDY..!

real dark tint looks like crap

i went with 21%
looks good in the day time
people can see you
but at night or on cloudy days they cant see you
its all about how much light you reflect and how much light you let in.

if cops are bad in the area then you might not want to go to dark
you just get sick of them pulling you over.

 

i take it everyone does tint at a shop? wat would u guys think of an apply-it-yourself tint that you can take off anytime you want? its not really dark tint per say, more of a light one with different colors to match your car i guess dunno, i thought about trying some light dark tinit myself and see how it comes out

 

35% tint

 

No

 

your car attracts enough attention due to its color.. window tint would make it worse.. this is for CA only IMO.. cops will hassle you for anything plus they love window tint.. and its a bitch to take it off...by law front windows cant have any tint whats so ever.. you can do 35% or even lighter if he wants to be a biatch he will ticket you for it.. and having 3 windows tinted in the back looks nasty if you ask me.. so my answer is dont do it at all.. i look at tint as cop magnet.. they always look around and want to see whats going on... plus i never do anything illegal so all of CHP and any CAPD can suck on you know what.. all they can really give me ticket for is illegal license plate and exhaust.. i'll just have my bud sign a ticket and put it right back on

why not? if i dont like it i can easily take it off unlike regular tint u have to use a heat gun to take it off properly......

 

I couldn't have said it better, hybrid eg! Fuggin' Socal cops!

 

i got 33% all around. the shop that did mine said they don't use 35% they use a better brand that is 33%.

the darkness also depends on the color of the car's interior. a dark interior will make the tint look darker.

 

On the front windows 20% the back 3 are 5% and a 7 maybe 8inch strip is %5
the pic is not the best( I was driving) and one of the few daytime pics...

 

hey I got a question, what is a good price range to get your window's tinted, i got quoted for 150 standard film, and retractive or something for 200. tell me wht a good deal is! thX

 

That cars looks really good,I thought tint would look gay on PY........I'm wrong!..Nice car too
