After auditioning for a stunt double without knowing it and having someone smack me all around and total out my 99 acura TL. I purchased a new to me 05 TL. Black w Black and Grey inside. Now for window Tint. Im not really sure what color would look good. I want legal 35%.

I got my previous car almost new and had the reflective tint and I dont think that would look too good on this one.

I need some suggestions and pics or links if anyone has any.

Thanks!

 

damn, i was about to say Huper Optik 35 % all around, but you dont like that reflectivness.

 

5% with 20% over it

 

^ What lol?

 

^ 2 layers of tint lol 5% then go over it with 20%. thats what i have

 

^he mentioned he wanted to stay legal.

your suggestion would not work here

 

35% all around. period.

 

he is a she :-)
im not sure of the termology or types just the percentages and whats legal (35%) so im a little clueless to that part.
i had the refliective before and i liked it...Its just a different color car.
im going to google the first suggestion again.

 

Correction: she.

 

I like this. what do you guys think?

 

Huper Optik ftw!

you can even go lighter and it will still have the same UV and Heat protection as 5% limo tint.
Some BMW and Mercedes guys/gals do 70% which retains the classy look of the car.

 

Thanks. I will check into this.

 

it is quite pricey tho!

 

aside from calling places that i know that do window tint, is there a way online, that i can find places in my area that use it?

 

disregard ive figured it out.

 

well she asked for suggestion so i gave one. if she wants legal there is no point asking for suggestions

 

Also check out formula 1.

Sure there is. There are various types and brands of legal tint.

 

Or even better 5% with 2.5% layered in the back.. uber dark. But I did it more because I wanted to be able to store things in my back seat and not have them visible. Idk about other states but in California pretty much anything on the back is ok but I had only 35% in the front and was made to remove it so it all depends.

 

^ i like the more uniform look of both front and rear windows having the same percentage.

it looks really tacky with the rears being darker than the front.

 

suntek seems to be the most "natural"...i have them on my infiniti they're also carbon based and non-metallic (good for navigation)

 

Here's another picture of my car with Huper Optik 35% all around.

 

^ looks surprisingly good (not typically a fan of any reflective tints).

 

Post up what your infiniti looks like with the suntek

 

I love this tint. Too bad I couldn't find a local place that would do it for me. This tint on that black BMW wasn't too bad. If you can afford it and find a place with it, I would go for it.

 

NJ sucks, they won't allow you to have front tinted. The car looks stupid if only back and rear tinted....

 

I guess my car looks stupid then.

j/p I agree that it sucks

 

Damn justnspace you love to flaunt that Huper Optik all over Azine. We're all jealous!

 

Reflective = Rice

I have regular 20 all around...just go 35 all around if you want to stay legal, and call it a day.

 

^lol at calling it rice.

 

it is pretty sexy, but it is PRICEY.

 

15%

 

20% all around.. 35% just doesn't cut it for me.

 

^^^ This.....

 

it all depends on which company you go for, in Canada if you go 20% or lower there is a huge chance of getting pulled over. Whereas I went with 30% on all doors and 5% rear glass. For me, yes the darker looks much better, but having to be worried all the time isn't worth it for me.

 

ok we get it its huper is uber awesome

 

when ur worried about speeding all the time there is no time to worry about tint hahaha...i got slapped with another 1 it just came in the mail im so pissed 400 dollars! im getting a freakin radar detector

 

Go with the 35%...You won't regret it!

 

I LOVE 20% but like some others said, worrying isnt worth it for me. I got 35% in the front and 20% in the back.

here in VA legal is 50 in the front and 35 in the back. Technically, I'm still illegal, but since the difference is still 15% between the front and rear windows, I'm hoping cops wont be able to tell with the naked eye

It also depends on the interior color. I had a black/black accord and the 35% seemed very dark because the dark interior. On the other hand, 35% is like nothing with my parchment interior...it looks much lighter.

 

Just in case some one didnt get it....





Huper Optik is Uber Awesome!
