I think window tint not only looks good, but serves a purpose.

Just got my 15% tint installed on Monday. Looks really nice. Keeps the warm air in during the winter, and the cold air in during the summer.

likek someone said earlier, it really depends on the color of the car. i myself have a nordic mist lude, and it looks ok. i took off my back windshield tint (limo black) which was hella hard to see out of, but it did a hell of a job keeping ANY light out

Limo tint is the ****! Check out girls, laugh at cars, and 10 sets of fog lights on a lifted Jeep don't blind you. Oh yea...it keeps the sun out toO.

I don't think it looks too bad on black cars, and some higher end cars it can look nice.

Window tinting is one of the first things I've always done to any car I've owned.

I have 28% on my windows because the location I live at the cops are really hard on tint. Local laws arre 35% here so I'm a tad darker than legal but I still wish mine were darker.

I wouldn't do it on your car.. black imports look best when tintless IMO.

now white cars, integras preferrable look good with a light 35% shade of tint.
