New Tint, 20% all around!

Well I finally got around to tinting the TL. I went with 20% all around except the front, I also removed the front license plate. So far so good, but let's hope the cops find better things to do than pull me over!

Actually, I think that looks very good. I have an Anthracite TL (06) and did mine in 15% all around (except for the fronts- no tint)- I don't think it looks as good if limo tint is used on the back as it's too uch contrast between the front and rear. I know most people will tell you it looks better with tint all around, but I also didn't wan't to be pulled over often.

The front windows on the car aren't tinted.

Yeah the sun is shining directly through the front windshield so the back looks darker, I need to snap some pics at dusk.

some windows dont look as dark as others because of the front windshield. only side shots will do the tint justice.

nice! 20% tint is good enough... the darker it is, the more attraction it gets from the cops...
