What kind of tint to get?

Which tint should I get? People down hear are pushing Lumar and sunguard. One suggested solar guard. Also, black or silver tint with my silver CL? What percentage? Thanks

IF you can find a shop that uses Johnson and Johnson metallic tint you won't be sorry

Go with the Lumar with the silver/mirror tint, it makes a big difference with the heat and sunray. Also it will not fade due to the aluminum/metallic layer. Well that's what the install guy told me. I now that my temps are much higher in TX than yours in FL, but you will enjoy the cool interior everyday and also it's much difficult looking to your car. Also, from what I understand with the Lumar/silver is warranty for life of the car. Well that is, if the place that installed the tint stays open for life.

I agree with dfv3.2CL-S!!!

I have the Lumar Metallic on my car. It comes with a lifetime warranty. I got it installed at Safecar in Lighthouse Point.

But you already knew that...didn't you??
