Hey Guys,
I wanna do my tint this week, but im stuck on 5% tint (illegal in Canada, but thinking of takin the chance..so sexy) or 20% tint ( illegal in canada also but you never get caught)..can you guys post of picture of your tint and what % thanks..

 

I am actually in the same predicament. I am getting my windows tinted this weekend... I have a black on black TL I want to do 32 in the front and 22 the rest.. I am not sure how dark that 32 will look in the front. Will i still be able to see through the window?? pics?? Thanks

 

i have 5 in da back and 35 on da front, i love it

 

i have 5% all the way around and 20% on the windshield....wouldnt have it no other way

 

if ur car is black on black or just black interior, 20% looks perfect. i dont think theres a need to go darker
heres my black on black with 20% all around. even my windshield looks tinted, its not tho.

daytime

 

umm i am likeing the 20 %...any more pictures..i have an silver tl with chrome wheels

 

I think you should go with 20 all around. with the factory tint plus the 20pct , you'll be at about 14 pct. if you have light interior...go with 20 doors and 5 rear window

20 all the way.
Also!! - I painted my dot matrix along the top of the rear!!
BEST way to avoid a crap tint on top.

i have all black leather interior..sooo 20 on top of the facotry tint?

 

best way to avoid a crap tint on top is going to a good tint shop. the best way to do it in my opinion is to sand teh dot matrix and than tint over it. thats what my tinter did. painting it looks awkward(spelling) from the inside. oh and 20 all around is perfect. especailly if u got black interior

 

20 all the way and i had the dot matrix tinted too. ive alredy been pulled over for it

 

ok so i think i am going to go with the 20 all around, and all this talk about the dot matrix....I am going to a really good tinter, but either way i wanna tell him about this dot matrix. So i should tell him to sand them down? the orange spots on the back window...?

 

what orange spots??? my tinter tinted over everything and its still holding up perfect after 3 and a half years.

 

i mean this dot matrix stuff you guys are talking about

 

i took more pix of 20%

 

looks sexy man...20% it is thanks everyone for the help..but its going on next year..because i need to replace me passenger front window...damn someone scratched them up...fucking kids

 

20% is the best IMO. Heres one pic if need more, let me know.

 

My tinter used a black vinyl strip and placed that on top of the dots. Looks perfect, no sanding or any of that crap. The vinyl strip looks clean and the dots are a non issue after that.

 

i just never liked the way teh vinyl stip looked from the inside. so i made sure my tinter did it by sanding down the dots

 

i think 20% tint would look good!!!

 

I have 5% all the way around..except the windshield. It can get some getting used to for some. In the dark you need to learn where the corners are when making a strange turn as you will not see them through the window. You really do get used to it but not everyone likes it that dark.

It will be very dark w/ 5%. Even on a sunny day, unless the sun is coming in the windshield and lighting the car from within, you have a hard time seeing in the windows. In the dark, forgetaboutit...

Wish had a better pic of the windows...


Here's one in the daytime with the door open. You can see how dark it is as there in no darkness from the car's interior to make it seem darker.

 

thanks for the pics, has the police given you any problems?

 

Nope..not a single word...

 

It's not a great picture, but here is my type s with 15% tint. They are normally pretty strick here in Florida, but I have not had any issues. It's not hard to see out of either. Brand of film is SunTech. Hope this helps!
