I was thinking 15-20ish

I don't want it TOO dark but I hate when you can see well in the car during the day

 

depending on your location, i wouldnt go much lower than the legal limit...35% in most places.

 

I wont get hassled, my buddy had 5% on his gti for years and never got bothered unless he was speeding or doing something stupid.

 

i'm a strong beleiver in being at the wrong place, wrong time. i've never gotten a ticket *knock on wood*, yet some of my friends get them regularly, and we all drive similarly, like most 20 somethings. i admit, i speed slightly, cut ppl off, ran a few reds, stops etc. yet im always lucky. so just cuz you're buddy gets away with 5% doesnt mean u will.

 

I live in Indiana and I have 15% and have pulled up next to cops and they don't do anything. My friend's dad got a ticket for tint and when he went to pay his ticket, the people at the bmv told him he was the first person they had seen with a tint ticket. 15% is a good amount of tint that isn't too light but still looks good.

 

20%. I live in kansas and got a 35% due to the law. Its not nearly dark enough.

 

One place wouldnt pass my inspection because i had 28.5....I thought I had 35%...I just went to another inspection place and they didnt bother me.

 

i got 15% all around dont really get harassed all that much here and there when u get those cops who are complete dicks but i would say go like 35% on the fronts and 15% back

 

I have 35% on the CL and 20% on the 4runner. Personally I'd like to go a little darker on the CL, but would only go to 30 on the CL. Cops are really strict about 20% tint around here on 2 door cars. I like 35% But I wouldn't go below 20 no matter what.

 

here in IL you can only go 35% but this guy i know has 20% all the way around except for the wind shield. its dark that you cant even see him inside so I asked him has he ever received any tickets and his response was he has a doctors note. I saw the note and it says something about having a glare. So i guess there are loop holes if you try hard enough.

 

I went with 20, Ill get pics up soon

 

i went with 15 on the driver and passanger, and 5 in the corners and back

 

Pics are Here

 

nice im getting mine done on monday thinkin about 35 on the fronts and 20 in the rears

 

hey the 20 looks good man

I'm thinking I'll go with 20 in the front and 15 or 15 in the rear

btw, how much did it cost you?

 

175 locally, lifetime warranty

 

nice, not bad at all

 

i had 35% on the CB7, but i'm gonna go 30% on the CL in the spring. If i ever get it back.

 

thank you, i think its your car that is my current wallpaper

 

Tint looks great Opi!

If I ever get the balls to do it, I'd love to. $175 really isn't bad with a lifetime warranty! I'll have to shop around my area.

 

I have 15% around and I believe 20% on the front windshield. If I were to do it again I probably would have done 5% around instead of the 15%.

 

Sorry to hijack the thread but:

I'm going to get 20% and then 15% on the back. I know with the rockblocker taillight tint you're supposed to wait for temperatures around 60-80. Is it the same with normal window tint, I'd speculate so but I really want to tint my windows like now. So could someone enlighten me :-)

 

I got mine in march and it was fine, but it's REALLY cold here right now for march so I'd wait. It needs about a week to cure and they recommend 60-70 deg for tint to cure as well

 

But what about like at night when it gets colder... haha...

 

 

Ok... well I think I'm gonna get my windows tinted like monday then, and then put on my 25% rockblocker taillight tint I got for christmas :-)

 

How hard is it to apply rockblocker tint yourself? Is is hard to do due to the curve of the tail lights? I know applying tint isn't easy in the first place, but your also inside the car leaning at awkard angles, where outside your not....?

 

It's really very simple, I was surprised. It's thicker than window tint and easier to work with IMO. It is kind of a pain, you just gotta take your time and know what you're doing
