be careful taking your seat belt off... i have a few nicks on my tint from whipping my seatbelt off by accident so .. yeah :X

looks damn good..... i have 20% now but now i either have to take it off or get legal limit because tint tickets take points off your license now! wtf is that about... legal limit is like 50% front 35% rear... what the hell is the point of getting tint if you get 50%..
sorry HAD to bitch..
prolly different where you live though..


ANYWAY it looks great!!

Thanks guys... come on be nice... This is not the best EM1 on the net. Thanks anyway though.

50% all around is legal here and no tint on the front.

10 minutes after I picked up my car I got pulled over. I was really shitting myself thinking dammit... I've only had it on for 10 damn minutes... rolled both windows down. Cop was really nice and said nothing about the tint but gave me a fix it ticket for no front plate. whew...

I think its perfect. I also got some special coating that makes it a bit more reflective but the tint itself is 35% ... It's more personal taste. I know some people that can't stand anything but something at around 10% ... so I dunno... Few more photos for you guys.

#1. your car is VERY NICE

#2. the best advice i can give you on ANY tinted windows is DO NOT USE WINDEX/ any other ammonia based window cleaner) on the INSIDE of the car....this stuff is what ruins the tint film
