How many of you have window tint?

Blue67coupe · February 1st, 2012, 01:37 AM

I never had mine tinted because I liked to be able to see through the car from the outside. But now I have been considering getting the windows tinted and wondering how many of you have it done. If so what percentage of tint and post some pictures. I think the darkest legal tint in Texas is 25% however I won't go as dark as possible. Also read that if your side mirrors give you a view of 200ft behind you there is no restriction on back window so it could be limo. If I do it i'm thinking probably 35% all the way around would be good.

Mine are all tinted at 20% on the Titan. I have got a ticket for the Titan but I just pay it and go on. (law here is 35)
The stang is 5%...
Not the best pic but you can see it's very dark.

I have 15% all the way around on the 2007. It keeps the bright litgh out during the day but I am still able to see easily at night. I hhave had limo on the back before but it's such a pain a night to see out of. I won't do it again.

I have 20% all the way around

I really like that 20% all the way around, also liking your black window trims

How is the visibility at night with that tint? And since we are relatively close, do you mind telling me where it was done at? Not really sure of a place to get it done.

At night its not bad but its not great either. I could always let you see mine locally as well. I got my done at wallys auto tint in garland. He has tinted all my vehicles for 10 years.

Thanks for the offer, but with my schedule recently i'll probably just get it tinted as soon as possible. I do have a couple car shows on my schedule that i'll let you know about when I get more info. They are still a little ways away. I have to take the car to get the hood hand glazed for it to be finished then if I have time tomorrow before work i'll take it over there to get it tinted. If not i'll just get it done Saturday morning.

I don't like the classics with tint. It just isn't classic.

Majority of the classics on here aren't stock anyway.

v606er · February 3rd, 2012, 01:30 AM

Hard to have a completely stock 40+ year old car these days.

Actually window tint was around in the 60's so the tint idea itself is still classic and not much more out of place than any other car. I use to be against it on classics but it has really grown on me.

v606er · February 3rd, 2012, 01:34 AM

I like how your car looks in your sig more than how it looks in the pics you posted, but maybe it'll grow on me.

Blue67coupe · February 3rd, 2012, 01:35 AM

The pictures in a seperate thread? None of them in here are mine, the one I posted most recent was a new hood picture

v606er · February 3rd, 2012, 01:39 AM

LOL I see your window is actually just down in the car facing us, and the sky is reflecting in the windows of the car facing away.

Blue67coupe · February 3rd, 2012, 01:43 AM

Haha I never even noticed that, I see what you meant now though.

codycat91 · February 3rd, 2012, 01:55 AM

I'm probably going to wind up doing 25 all around. Mainly to stay right at the legal limit because knowing my luck I willl more than likely get pulled over.
