i don't have pics but i think the fading mirror tint is soooo tacky! it looks like the person forgot to do the rest of the window. i think eventually it will fade out (no pun intended ) i think people will get sick of seeing it. getting your whole window tinted in mirror will look sweet!

Yeah that's what I did all mirror but only 35 percent but it's still pretty hard to see inside. All you can see is your own reflection, plus I wanted to keep it legal and all.

it will only turn purple if you use cheap tint film. get the titanium type and the purplish effect won't happen.

I always thought it was stupid but I'm thinking of doing the front -- whats a real light percentage taht will make a small diff. and not really be noticeable---cuz i never got one ticket with my TBird (no front) but the back was limo, 3/4back windows (2-DR) limo and sides 20% it was DARK...
