I've seen it on a couple cars and I think silver is the only color it looks good on. But personally, I like black.

I would stick with Black.. That tint youre speaking of is that SILVER tint that you see on most LEXUS suv's but more silver.. It is illegal to have any color to the tint other than black and the reflective tint is illegal in most states as well..

I have mine sitting at 5% so no one can see me when im smoking blunts...

Anything other than black is G.A.Y. In my opinion.

I have the titanium llumar tint (30%) and it looks good on the silver. For the most part its not that silver, so it doesn't look like mirror or anything, just a subtle hint of silver in the right light.

Tropic Window Tinting ( http://tropicwindowtint.com/ )in Union carries the stuff and they do excellent work. Cost me 250 for the titanium to do the rear window and the sides. Regular smoke tint is less though.

I had the same thing on my Accord. I couldn't remember the name of it. But it's just a hint of silver.

This was my BABY.. She will be missed ever so..... She had 5% back . 30% driver/Pass


5% tint so you can't see up in window...


The titanium might just be the non fading kind.. Was is about $30 bucks more than the other? It has some reflection but like said before not so much like mirror.. Good for when light shined upon, this causes the mirror shine to be more noticeable. Its a tint film made with specs of metal..This is what keeps it from fading..

A note.... that silver tint will mess up radar detectors, & AM radio. If you do the windshield, your EZ-Pass will be useless as well.

I also think it looks so bad. My friend in NYC has a silver TLS with that silver tint. It's not for me.

I have a Silver 01 CLS & I have 15% all around & it looks GREAT. It's dark but to SOOO dark that you can't see inside. I think that's a happy medium. There just right. & they look TIGHT on our car too.
