I want to tint my windows, they're tinted already, but they went to shit and turned blue. I want to re-tint them, but not sure what percentage to get. If anyone has a ABP TL with tint, could you post a pic of your car and tell me what percentage you have. . I live in CT and legally 35%, but I talked to a cop and he said they shouldn't really bust my balls. I have the peanut butter interior so I know it won't look as dark as black, so hopefully you guys can show me some pics of your cars! Thanks guys!!

you do know that if you get the same kind of tint, it'll go bad again?
25% dyed tint is pretty decent. but in a couple of years it'll just turn purple again.

I recommend either a carbon or a ceramic based film.
it has a different color than "normal" dyed tint.

and whatever percentage you choose, it'll look good

no I'm getting a different kind of tint. When I bought the car it already had these tints on it. The place im going to get the tint redone at gives lifetime warranty if it fades or scratches. Just want to see how ABP cars with the light interior look with different percentages before I make my selection. I don't want to go too dark, but I don't want to go too light either, so figure seeing some will help me make my selection

so then just go legal 35%

15-5% would be way to dark.

or you could compromise and do 25%

I guarantee you'll like the way you look.

I have a Royal Blue TL, but the colors are very similar. I'm rocking 25% Rear and 30% Front tint.



Don't get cheap tint when you go redo yours. Like Justin said, try and get ceramic tint.

and from this angle, you cant really tell the % differences.

the one thing, I do know is that 15% -5%will be too dark!!

but either way, your ABP will look good Italian

UA6~RBP

Yeah 20% would look really good overall. It's light enough to see through at night, but dark enough to look good during the day.

rear 3 are 15% i think. previous owner did it. I had the front 2 done at 35%

if i had to redo anything, the rears would be lighter. I have a hard time seeing out at night when it's completely dark outside.

italiancip14

have a better side view where you can see better. angled like that is pretty hard.

anyone with 20 or better angle of 25%?

Thanks bro...Yeah, dark tint isnt for everyone but i have always had dark tints on all my cars.i just got used to it and anything lighter and i would feel naked...lol..As for the roof spoiler, i dont think ill get one..I like the clean look...

italiancip14

^ looks good I wouldn't be able to go 5% all around though...too dark for me. looks good though. still got the bumper if you're interested, price drop i wanna get it out of the house

any 20 or 25%ers

UA6~RBP

I love ABP....and my own.

italiancip14

thanks brandon. 25% is pretty dark. maybe i don't even need to see 20% lol think i'm going to do 25% all around, unless I get persuade not to lol

This......works......very.......well.

UA6~RBP

No problem. 25% is good spot to be at as far as night-time viability goes. I don't have any problems seeing out at night (except for the fact that the tint on my rear glass is getting fuzzy so I'll eventually have to redo it). 20% looks good, but it might be a little dark up front for my personal taste.

No matter what, anything is better than driving in a fishbowl
