20% tint

alright so i finally found a decent priced place for window tinting in portland. 200 bucks and it was done. i got quoted 350 at three other shops. i also got my lamin-x in but i might take it off. looks a little odd. i put in a switch next to the light adjuster thingmabobber to turn on and off my s12 L7 in the back. my center console turned out decent as well. leave some comments! oh yeah my front bumper got hit and the fool took off and its cracking now

See I'm the opposite of that, I work at a tint shop now and am thinking about putting 5% over my 18%, I just don't think it's dark enough, especially when it's really sunny out. Your car looks good.

What paint did you use to match the shit gate to the camois gray trim in the console? I want to do that to my car I think.

Looks good, just too dark for my taste. I'm gonna go limo on the back windshield and 30% all around & 35% on the windshield.... I know it sounds like alot, but my boy did it just like that on his lexus & it came out sweet. I'll take pics one day and post them.

idk. got it at lowes. it stands out though because everything else in the car is oxidized. makes me wanna trade in for a new tl. im glad to know a girl thinks my car looks good for once lol. and napsoner i wanted to do 30 at first but the guy was like i can do 20 if u want so i said go ahead. i really dont like getting dif tints but i might have to go back and have him do 35% on the front. the dudes pretty cool. at first he said 250 but then he said 200s ok. no argument!

I feel you MrChanh, but w/limo on the back glass you cant really tell that the tint would be a diff shade. Def go back and tint the windshield though. Just don't go too dark cuz the police would grab you up quick....
