Pix Request please

I have an 03 cl-s San merino red. I'm going to get tints at 4pm and am wondering how dark to go. Can anyone who has 18% 20% and 30% with red please post a pic.

Thank you

Since youre getting tints, just get them all in a different opacity!

Do the back three 20% and leave the front two clear.
unless you look like sloff from the goonies.

In that case tint the crap out of them,the cops would probabaly give you a pass.

Its not exactly legal, but my cop buddies say as long as they can see the driver during the day they wont hassle me. It helps that I don't drive like a goon. As for the night driving, I've not had any issues. The HIDs put out enough light that I can see the road very well, backing up can get interesting but I just make sure the area is clear before I get into my car. Also it helps that I drive this car 99% of the time from home to work and back. The wife's car does the family hauling at any other time.

Tint helps keep my interior mint. Closing on 120k and the leather is still soft n supple not cracked n nasty. Can't find a good shot of the drivers seat, but here's the pass seat, back seat and console.

I'll pass on the Darwin award, there are many more deserving folks out there.

Legal tint all around. As for the windshield, I have mine tinted too but only at 80%. Any more then what I have then I'm begging to get my car impounded.
