Metallic TINT RULES!

Only turns purple if you wash it with windex or poor install causes other problems also.

I have what I think is a mirror effect tint, is this the same as the metallic tint? I got it done in the ghetto part of DC so they said "you got mirror tint" now I'm not sure cuz they were ghetto too!

Mirror tint you see a slight reflection in the window at certain angles. Hit my homepage to see what my car looks like with mirror tint.

You're right! Does yours reflect all the time? Mine reflefcts at certain angles.

 

I just got it a little while ago and I am sooooooo in love with it. I will take pictures tomorrow if I get out of work early enough.....he even tinted over my 3rd brake light even though I forgot to ask him to do so....if any of you guys live in the Long Island area go to Main Street Stereo in Sayville, Long Island.

Its definatly worth the drive and they do great work....

 

I'm gonna do a mirror tint as well, but much lighter...35 or 50 percent..

i have a silver tl, and wanted that exteremly shiny mirror tint... i guess kinda like yours MToker... but i got what the tint person said is silver mirror tint. it's too light i think... i need darker...
MToker...is your illegal????? i wanted that greenish look... i think it looks really good w/your tl and silver

 

"Mirror Tint" is cool... but I didn't get it for two reasons. One is that it is too light. You can see through almost completely at a certain angle. (That's how it is on my friend's GS300.) The other is that I like the charcoal a lot more. Since it's only 38% (of sunlight blocked), it's pretty light and cops don't bother me.

I got 20% tint/platinum about 2 weeks after I bought the TL, 1) for privacy, 2) to protect the leather. 20% is Illegal here, 35% is the minimum, but what the hell, it looks KILLER on the Laguna Green. It's a very light platinum so it's not the full mirror like on some ghetto cars, but can be used as a mirror close up, otherwise just looks like shiny reflective glass from a distance.

Where did you get it done ? ANd how much ? I wanna tint the Accord the same way.

 

Ocean Audio at the beach. I don't recall how much but talk to John he is the owner and the tinter is named Eric. Just tell them you saw it on a 2000 Acura they did some work on.

I'm getting my Formula one 3 layer metallic tints installed tommorow. I'm getting 20% on the back and the rear side windows, and 35% on the front side windows. I'm also thinking of putting a 20% mirror strip on the front windshield.

I got my tint installed today. The Formula one tint was semi-metallic and i wanted it very metallic. So I got the llumar Platinum tints done. I got 20% on the back and back side windows, and 35% on the front side windows.
My only complaint is that he wouldn't put the tint on top of the dot matrix at the top of the back window cuz the tint would easily peel off of that area, so he did it from their on.

Overall I like it.
