Anyone tint their Tsx?

I was thinking of tinting my car to give it a more unique look to it, prevent the interior from fading, and for privacy, but has anyone tinted the Tsx yet and can anyone post any pics?

I had mine done. I did 35%, it cost $190. That's the legal limit here in Missouri. Dabuda2004 had his Carbon Gray tinted and it looks really good too. Have him fill you in on the details.

Metallic tint & Navi

I would like to know how many people have tinted their TSX's (that have navigation) with metallic tint. If yes, are you having any problems with your navigation. I would like to get a response from as many navi owners as possible.

I plan on putting tints on my TSX this upcoming spring.

Thanks!

i went 20% smoke all around except for the windshield. it's perfect imo, not too dark, but tough to see in even in the daytime. my accord had 13% smoke and that was really nice, but a little too dark especially when trying to reverse at night.

I think 35% is the legal limit here in VA. Anyone know any resources on the different types of tinting, I see platinum, metallic, smoke. I'm looking into what would match my PWP the best.

God I'm jealous of you guys - 70% is the legal limit here in the People's Republic of Pennsylvania. Not even worth doing.

I don't remember the percentages, but I think they're 20% in the back windows and 30% or so for the front 2 windows. $149, same shop that did the tints on my Prelude and Integra.
