I have an appointment now to get my windows tinted on Friday. I was curious of two things. One: what % do you guys recommend I get tinted? The legal limit in Minnesota is 50%, he said a common choice is 35%. Is 35 good, or should I go darker? Or I suppose it's all up to my own preference, but I just wanted to know what was a good dark tint without going so dark that I get pulled over for it.

Also, is it common to tint the top part of the windshield, I think that's called 'eyebrow' tinting or something to that effect? Or is that gay, or cool what is the deal with it? I was going to ask the place when I made the appt. but I forgot.

 

most ppl do 20%.. i rather not having tint because is not that hot where i live, btw cop most likely to pull over that are tinted for illegal **** in my area

 

wow 50% in MN, ours is 30 in WA but i like 15%

currently have 20 in front and 15 in backs

 

Yea well it's been incredibly hot here, upper 90's with a fair amount of humidity. Plus I plan on putting a very expensive radio in the car, so I don't want people to be able to see it as easily.

 

15% is a good percent, my friends car has 15 all the way around and u can only see like the outline of the person in a different car, i like it

 

i have 20% and i love it

 

Ok, so 20ish seems to be the trend. What about the eyebrow tinting thing, anyone got any ideas about that? Is it a common thing to do, or does ANYbody do it, or what? I see them with advertisements on them all the time, but do people do it with just regular tint?

 

man tinting is all bout keeping your **** protect, eyebrow or regular is still tinting. keep it original

I just had a Solid black strip across the front which went down 7".

Ususally I would think darker on the back, and slightly lighter on the front sides.

 

How does the black strip across the front look? Both from the inside and out...is it alright? Good enough that I should ask to get it done?

 

just dont go lower than limit. its waste of money if you get pulled over.

 

It makes the car look slightly lower, and it's not that bad.

You can't really tell I have one even, just looks darker.

 

75% is the limit in new york i got 20's alllll around

is this you?? BAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

 

I had 30% and got pulled over and given a $190 fine! NO TINT is legal in British Columbia.

But 20% is a good choice........As for the "strip of black tint" on the top of the front windshield...If it serves no pupose than I don't see a point in putting it there. But that's just my opinion.*don't hate on me too much flatblackTeg....

 

hahahahaha thats crazy

 

It is only the front windows that is illegal here in bc ..... you can paint the windows behind the drivers head all black if you want.

 

yeah over here in ND there is only a limit on the front windows like some have said
my friend has 20% on his SI and i think that looks good and its not to dark to where you get pulled over every 10 minutes but its still functionlal

i believe washington is 25%...i have 20%. it's pretty dark, and it sucks when you back up at night. can't see ****...i somewhat want it darker, but it does pretty good right now already.

but it looks cool. hahaha. everyone likes the dark tint. be careful of cops though. my friend got sited for his.

 

got a ticket in MA for having tinted windows, $250, fucked part was that they didnt even measure it or anything.

 

I had 17% on mine, got pulled for it and got cited. Faught it along with the modified exhaust ticket, and not having amber sidemarker lights. Cop was having a bad night I guess. At least I got them all taken care of. None of them stuck.
