Default should i tint this car?

i have white vinyl seats and it gets REALLY hot here in california. even with the A/C on max its still hot because of the sun, should i get a tint to reduce the heat? if so what % tint would look good on this color car

Ditch the clear corners, and the white stickers, lower it more, and tint it.

I like my mirror tint

Read chapter two. Explains all about how you should never leave polls open.

to answer your question.. I think you should dump the car before you tint it.

White vinyl seats were so 1996. Lose the seats, clear corners, stickers and drop it. It'll look good after that.

de-rice it (ie. put back to stock, including your hubcaps). I hate ppl who ride around on black steelies through summer... Honda gave you hubcaps for a reason, use them.

then worry about the heat... 35% metallic tint, bronze in color. I'm thinking about replacing my tint, it's currently 20% smoked, I'd like 35% or 50% metallic bronze.
