Looks good on Qwill's white car. I don't see any reason why it would look any worse on silver.

 

Quick question, what did you guys do about the dot matrix in the back?

 

pics are in my Car Domain of 35% all the way around on my SSM.

 

Jim - I take it you are happy with the 35% on yours - seems to look just right. I'm like one of the other posters. Have the silver and want the tint (Texas and Louisiana summers!), but don't want to disturb the sporty look of the car. Seems like the 35% would look good and still looks sporty (plus I have the spolier on mine).

Has anyone tinted a silver CL with more than 35% tranmission (I don't even know if you can get more transmission that 35% - i.e. 50%)?

 

yeah i love 35%. I think it looks perfect on the car. Especially at night. Im adding the M5 lip spoiler next week, so im sure it will change the look of the car just a tad.

 

Your tint looks great i wish i did my like that instead of 20%!!

 

thanks man. I had 20% on my previous car, but i didnt want to go that dark with this one. I think this is the perfect shade, and (knock on wood) i havent gotten pulled over yet.

 

The place I took mine to just tinted over it. You can tell the matrix is there, but if the shop is good they can prevent it from looking stupid. It would have looked weird had they not tinted over it, and I've heard horror stories about places sanding them down.

 

Yeah.. Andyjl just got it done by one of those tint guys that come to your place after you make appointments with 'em. He didn't touch the dot matrix, and now light shines through in just that spot.

I got a good place lined up though. I'll just ask 'me to tint right on over.

 

I had 5% all around on my last car and now I have 15% all the way around on my 02 TLS, it's about perfect. You really don't have any issues driving at night the only hard part is backing up in very dark areas so I occasionaly have to open my door. As far as cops go in my part of the country (missouri) they really don't care.

 

 

Wow. 5% all around. I'd get pulled over really really quick.

I'm really diggin' the idea of 15% back 3 though. Can I get a picture?

 

remember if your interior is Ebony (black) the tint will be appear darker...

 

Really liking the 35% all around Smitty. Looks really classy. . Do you get any shit for having the 35% on your windshield?

 

I have a doctors excuse for photophobia (sensitivity to bright light).. I have got questioned in the past, but never ticketed... I took the tint on the lower part of the front windshield off.. felt like I was watching a movie while driving...

 

Hey Smitty, 35% rear, if you parallel park, are you still able to see out your rear window?

 

35 out the rear's easy to see, even at night... shouldnt have a problem with that unless you've got bad eyesight.

ive got 35% front and rear windshields, 12% down the sides... works for me

 

Got any pics III?

Sucks.. just when I think I'm set on something, a new suggestion comes up.

 

I use my sideview mirror... but I have no issues seeing out of the rear window...
I have black vinyl across the top of the dot matrix..

 

Here Is 15% front and rear

 

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/612003/2... theres mine, 5% all around, and 2 layers of it on the back

 

MANNNN 5% all around. Truly insane man. I love that profile shot of your car w/ the servos though. That shit looks soooo clean.

Hey Morgan, do you have any problems lookin' out the windows and such w/ 15% all around?

 

here's mine...5% Limo all around, no tint on front windshield though.

 

Man. These all around tint pictures are awesome.

I hate living in California.

 

man I live in L.A. and I've had my limo tint for the entire time, and I never get hassled. Not like it's a big deal anyway if you get pulled over. It's like a $10 fix it ticket. Just go with whatever you like.

 

Wait. serious?
People tell me non stop about how much of a hassle and such it is when you get the fix it tickets.

 

like what?? Ok, I've gotten 1 fix-it-ticket in the past 4 years of driving. Both of my cars had 5% limo all around. When I got the ticket, I had to go to get my tint removed, go to my local CHP which is close-by and have them approve that the tint was replaced, and go get the tint put back on. About 2 hours of my day, no biggie.

 

Wow. How much did it cost to get it removed for the fix it inspection then reput back on? ((I guess that's the hassle that I'm referring to)).

And I heard from someone that cops will cut your window tint w/ a knife to make sure you fix it? I called on that though.

 

No problems with 15%. I Like it , I'm thinking about doing the windshield like 35%

 

No windshield laws up there?

 

the ticket was like $10, and my buddy hooked it up w/ the tint. His shop removed it for me for free, and put it back on to the two fronts for like $20. And the cop just made me roll down teh windows so he could inspect them, no razor blade bullshit.

 

i dont have those wheels, its photoshopped

 

Wanna hook me up WHEN I get my ticket?

 

I have ebony interior... im thinking of doing 35% sides, 20% rear. should that be dark enough?? would it be too dark if I went with 20% sides and rear??
the car is anthracite, so I dont want it really dark, but good enough so you cant really see in.

 

aspar, that should be dark enough, 35% looks good, and i would go with 15% rear

 

well I dotn want the rear too dark so I can still see out of it at night... also, can you tell the difference when you look at the car with two different levels of tint on the rear and sides?? I dont want it to look stupid

 

well i have 15% in the back window and i can see fine at night.

as for telling the different levels of tint on rear and sides. well i don't know how the jersey laws are there, but i'm assuming you can go pretty dark, 35% on sides looks pretty sweet, i think its dark enough, but if you want it to look better, go with 20% on the sides

 

Hey Andy, how's your vision @ night w/ 15% back window when you're parallel parking?

I know 5%, you can't see anything out besides headlights. 15% you can still see cars behind you?

 

i don't know about parallel parking, don't really do it ever, the cars behind me are obviously darker at night, but i can see ok
