Calling all NBP

Ok, right now my car is bone stock... first thing I'm going to do is tint my windows, but I cant make up my mind on which ones to get. If I get black tints (20%) I'm afraid it will look too black, and thugged out. My other option is to get platinum tints (18%) but I'm afraid of it looking ricey. Any opinions? I need help

We'll heres something to give you an idea. I have 28% tints.



It's not too dark, not too light, just inbetween. I like it like that, but I would have to say most people would like it darker.

And here's a comparasion with the tint and no tint (no tint on the front two). Had to get it stripped one time... stupid cops. But it's back to the first picture.

Peace, Jeff

I have 30% on the sides and 20% on the rear. Looks really good, IMO.

I had the exact same problem, got them tinted too dark, got pulled over for it and got a ticket, had to have the tint on the front windows removed, got the ticket taken care of, took it back to the Tinting place the same day and got it re-tinted the same as it was before I got the ticket, lol.
