Requesting a 35% Tint all around pic..
I also have a question.. is 35% dark enough to not totally see into the car, but just see a silouette (sp?). What % reflectivity do I need so you can't totally see through the windows? I'm thinking about getting smoked tint. Does anyone have pictures?

I'm curious too. I'm getting 35% charcoal all around on Sep 13. I'll be in Colorado for business/personal and taking my car there. I gotta a guy who has tinted all my cars, my friends and family for 10 years! Saving me a ton of cash and does the best tinting I have ever seen!
I gotta do 35% here in Minnesota. Actually, legally anything less than 50% is illegal, but 35% is light enough to keep me out of trouble.

Yield!! Send me pics of your car!! I am trying to get my OEM wheels chromed out and with the tint!
The one in your gallery is cut off for some reason. You can send pics to CJITTY@hotmail.com or repost here so we can see more tint shots at the same time. That way, we can stick to the original topic..tint

I have 18 reflective tint on all besides the windshield and it looks great. especially on a WDP. I am wishing I had gone lower, maybe to 10. The people before me got 18 in the back and 35 in the front to stay legal. i went to a different place and he matched my two windows for a hundred, no questions asked.

get 35% on the sides but get 20% in the back. That's what I have and I love it. 35% the cops don't bother you. I've had my plates ran and cops look right at me. I think the fact that you can see in sorta doesn't make them bother you. I like the 20% in the back because it's darker and it lets less heat in.

Personally, i feel it is a waste to put 35% all the way around because most of the time you can see right through the windows anyway( what is the point of tinting the windows then) i live in brooklyn where 70% is the only legal tint.... i have 5% all around and 2% on the back window because i like no one to see in at all.... to be honest 20% will do the job if you have a dark color interior and if your worried about them being too dark many people do 35% on the front windows and 20% on the back.... many people dont like the tints not to match but it does the job....

35 IS REALLY LITE SPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE A LITE INTERIOR. I HAVE 35 ALL AROUND AND BLACK INTERIOR ON MY 2003 TL-S. REASON WHY, JUST BECAUSE I ALREADY HAVE A MAGNET TO ATTRACT COPS AND DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE THEM ANOTHER REASON TO PULL ME OVER. THE LEGAL HERE IS 35% BUT IN MY OPINION IS NOT DARK ENOUGH. I THINK 20 OR BELOW IS REALLY COOL.

still a Masshole
I have 35% as well because as SROBS mentioned thats the legal limit in MA. I thik next car I tint will get a 20% because you can still see inside but I think it looks better.

I'm totally in agreement with you. I want 35% now because on my other car that had 20% on the sides and 5% on the back, I got straight jacked by the cops and had to come off a $105 fine and had to remove the tint. I really ain't trying to deal with the hassle anymore ya dig. Especially a brotha like me living in a uppity type suburb. I got stopped coming out of my garage one time because "I fit the description" What kind of junk is that?
So, like I said, don't need the hassle. I'm already illegal getting 35%. If they pull me over and measure with the tint meter, it will read out 29%. Stock tint is 6% of light blocked and actual tint film will be 35% blocked. 35-6=29%=another ticket. Ya dig?
Yes, our stock tint is roughly 6% blocked, or 94% light allowed in.
