Tint Compilation Thread
 
Not sure if there's already one floating around. I looked but didn;t see anything.

Anyhow, I was thinking a thread specific to tint on any color of the twins might be a nice one-stop-shop for those of us still deciding.

So, please post a pic of your tinted car, with brand and percent of tint. Adding in name of tint shop and price would be cool, but not sure if that's allowed under forum rules.

Tint Brand:
Tint %:
Shop Name:
Cost:

I'll start, although my car isn't tinted yet, and I'll edit this with an update once it is.

Why?

Ravenlokk 09-18-2012 02:00 AM

Because the dimpling around the edge prevents tint from adhering properly, and the opaque stuff around the perimeter of the glass doesnt match tint. Im not sure if theres a reason why the glass is like that, but when i saw it i figured i wouldnt be tinting. Originally i wanted to do 5% blackout on raven on all 7 pieces of glass

From the tint I've seen, I don't think it'll be a problem.
