My TL pictures were moved, if anyone cares to get a decent look, inside and out, of my TL-S.

I think normal tint on the back of SUV's and Van's (OEM) is 35%...15% is really dark....their tint is definitely not as dark as mine. 35% would also conform to alot of the state's laws.

Awesome. You probably don't even have to stick your head out of the window to see where you're going at night.

The tint shop I went to for my Dodge Avenger told me that he switched from carrying 20% to carrying 15% because 15% was standard on SUVs and Minivans.

Just going based on that ^

I got all my windows done (except sunroof and windshield) done for $200 cash, under the table. It was a friend of mine so I got a receipt, but chances are you wont get one since its below the legal limit :-D.

Fl is actually 28% on the front.

I just got my MBP TL last week, I plan to do 15% all the way around just like my previous car was.

Just look at my avatar. I got 5% on the back and 10% on the front windows. Never had a problem even though state limit is 35% to none I think. Kinda hard to see at night but I hate the sun and people looking at school.

15 all around (:

20% all around. Have pics of my car in my garage. 35% is legal here for fronts, but cops dont bug you here unless you have like 5% which is way too dark.

35% all around.

35% all the way around. If I could do it again I would go 30%.

I paid $241.31 for my 50% nano ceramic tint that looks more like 35%.

I currently have 25% all the way around (minus the windshield). I really like the darkness of it... I think it's just about the perfect tint except for on the rear window. Also, when the car was tinted the tinters did not do the quarter windows the right way and also cut around my rear brake light in the rear window (I purchased the car with the tint already done). So I'm considering getting my tint redone. Since I get a chance to do it over again, here are a couple of things that I'm planning.

I may drop to 20% on the front and side windows just to go slightly darker. But I'm fine with 25% and I would recommend it. HOWEVER, I'm planning on getting my rear window done in a 10%. The reason being because of my tan interior. Due to the rear deck being so close to the rear window the tan color really makes the rear window tint look MUCH, MUCH lighter than the rest of the windows. If you have tan interior I would recommend going a couple of shades darker on the rear so it will even out the look on the car.

So my future plans are:

20% sides, 10%/15% rear, 50%+ on the windshield (???? this is just a thought at this point, I would REALLY have to consider it).

But WHATEVER you do, make sure they fully tint the quarter windows and DON'T cut around the rear brake light. Mine wasn't done right the first time and now I'm having to get it redone so that I can be happy. It just doesn't look as clean, IMO.

I don't own NBP. However, for WDP with parchment interior, I believe no tint = Winning!!!
But if one decided to tint, make sure to go with good brands like Huper Optik (gon be expensive), SunTek, 3M, Llumar,Formular 1.
Also go with ceramic, metallic tint will cause phone signal and navigation interference.

30% all around, not too dark, not too light =)

just remove it yourself, then just take it to get the tint done that will save you some money I hope

20% front and rear.. 5% back windshield.. 35% front windshield

carfreak55

35% front, 5% back

garrett

its better to let the shop remove the tint off the rear window because its too easy to screw up the rear window defroster.

if the shop screws it up its their responsibility.


oh and for those that are unsure about the legal limits in your state you can go to http://www.tintlaws.com/
