Default Sorry for the dumb question.

I was wondering, is it possible to tint the rear window of my S2000 even though it is not glass?

Thank you, and anyone have any pictures of their car tinted? I don't know what percent to get.

You can't tint it if it isn't glass.

Anyone else know if it's possible. I thought it was, but I thought you just couldn't use a blade to cut it.

YES you can tint it, just not the conventional way. it's done by static cling tint. you do have do to do it yourself, and the tint adheres to the plastic via the static.

Shops can do it as well. Just find a good one! The downside is if you keep going top up/down. It will get creased

Thanks guys. It's going in tomorrow to a good shop that has done a lot of my Friend's car's.

I think I'm going with 10%. Any pictures of your cars with tinted window's? If you post up, let me know what % you have.

I had 20% on my GSX I think it was, wasn't dark enough for me.
