Get 20% should have no trouble as I don't

Get 5% if you're daring...looks awesome. My brother has had no trouble for months with 5%.

i was thinking 10% or 15% i think 5 % is overkill lol i still wanna be able to see at night

He can see just fine at night except when parallel parking the window comes down

5% does look great, 15% for everyday comfort and cops would hardly trouble you, anything lighter than 20% is a waste of money.

Cops tend to do jack shit.. Its more worrying when insurance companies can void ur claim if they find ur illegal tint caused an accident

search the appearance gallery, i remember seeing a thread a while ago based on window tints, u just gotta think 2 yourself, if a cop drives next to you and looks at your window tints, will he/she think 2 themselves "these windows are 2 dark?" or will they think nothing of it and move on....

also remember insurance... 35% is legal limit anything darker than that is most probably going 2 be the sole reason u rear ended someone in their opinion

i got 5% for rear and 10% at the front. Looks great IMO.

**flipfire** · 13-06-2010 08:51 AM

Go with 15-20%. I went with 15% and never had any trouble with cops.

I dunno how people cant drive with 5% tints for the drivers window. You can see what your gonna turn in to at night

**quangsuke** · 13-06-2010 11:54 AM

please dont go 5%. looks cool but at night on a dark road you can't see outside your drivers window. AND in the rain goodluck seeing at all. thats from my experience. mix it up. u can put the rears to 5% and fronts at 15%.r

im gunna scrap my 35% =.= its not dark enough
i only got the job done in feburary too
but oh well at least i had lifetime warranty on it and only costed me 130 to do all 6 windows
