nice tints

for those with dark tints on the rear windshield, how's the visibility? i had 20% all around on my tl-s and it was fine but it was a bigger car. tint is gonna be the first thing i'll be getting once i get the car.

What is everyone's suggestion as far as tinting the top part of the front windshield? And for those of you that have it tinted, can we get a pic of that?

Tennessee Legal Limit, sides and back. 35%

They are bastards in VA. I had 35% on the fronts and got pulled over after about 6 months. I had to go to court and get it taken off. 50% is legal on the front windows in Virginia.

Just got it tinted today. Will take better pictures tomorrow. I just took the pictures just as the shop was done tinting my car. 5% back windows, 35% Front window, 5% strip on front winshield. I'm just counting the days till I get pulled over here in lovely california.

Betters pics later..

I too would like to get some input on tinting the top part of the windshield and see some more pics...

niterydr · 06-08-2009, 04:37 PM

For those still looking, my tint is 15% all around. 7" strip on the front. I told them to use the less glossy stuff because it makes it look a little darker. I get migraines a lot so dark windows are a must for me. I don't think visibility is bad, but then again all my cars have had 15% so I'm used to it. Hope this helps someone.

Sorry for the bad quality pics. I have a 5% tint Strip on my front windshield. It looks curved but the line is very straight. Also the tint ship and to do two strip due to my homelink review mirror. You can kinda see why in the first pictures. If you look close you will see the wire for the rearview mirror.
