Tint looks good, but it all depends what kind and how dark you want it.

Also makes it harder for thieves to look inside your car and see what goodies you have.

Tint = good

In Atlanta it gets hotter than two mice f'ing in a wool sock, so the cooler you can keep your car the better

No tints makes it easier to see at night in the rain

Craig - who fucked up 2 rims, 1 lca and his alignment on his GSR due to tints and rain at night.

I just had my windows tinted on my PYITR this past saturday and I wish I would have done it when I bought the car. I would'nt go to dark I had mine tinted 35% all the way around including the front windshield. You can still see me in the car a little harder to see me at night but the front window being tinted cut down on so much glare and makes the car completely sealed from the sun keeping the car a lot cooler..

A good tint job is worth it.

Tinting makes it difficult for people to look inside your vehicle.
Protects your seats from FADING.
Your car isn't as hot.
Some tinting makes your side windows hard to break?

I have 98% on my front windows. At bare minimum it's a UV protectant to keep my interrior from cracking and fading. I have UV tint all around, I forget the % in the back windows...

It's also harder to break a window with tint, cause the film will keep the window together somewhat...
