If you get tint don't get them too dark, I prefer a little darkness but too much ruins it.

I say no. I think tint only works on some cars, but on most it makes them look trashy.


I would upgrade to CTR headlights or go back to stockers. After having blacked out ones of my own, I realized how much cleaner OEM ones look, and converted them back to stock.

for me....nah I wouldnt... I always feel like tint brings out the dings, and dents in the body of a car.. usually in black. Plus the **** bubbles if you use the rear defroster and for me it sucks in the winertime when it fogs up...

NO AC FTL!

It looks clean already but if not then I would suggest putting 20% on the rear and the back to windows and leaving the front two windows without tint.
