Hey, all. Just got back from getting the windws tinted. 22% all around. The photos dont do it justice, but I think it looks soooo much better than before. Any comments?

You mean 22% light-penetration or 22% darker? I'm bound to think they're more like 22% light-penetration... :)


Looks COOL! :thumbsup:

And love the spoiler! :lol:

It lets 22% of light in. BTW, SUV windows in the back are 13% (in case anyone wants trivia questions :grin: )

And thanks for the compliments. :57:

Looks sharp on the silver. I have been looking for some motivation to put some tint on mine...I may have it now.

Good job!

super sweet!!! im a trade window tinter. in my time tinting i found darkness to heavily relate to the interier color too. my tint is 20% with a 5% strip on the front. with the tan insides it looks lighter in the day, when cops tend to look for dark windows. but with greys and blacks it tends to look darker. anyhow, you shouldent have a issue wit those. but be a reble.. limo those windows, some rules look so good broken :grin:
