Getting tints what's better?
 
I'm getting tints at auto-links soon (Toronto/Canada).

I'm getting the pinnacle formula one film but should I get:

15
20
30

All around?

Fixed. FUCK THE POLICE.

Go 20s all around.

No tint. See better out of the car and be seen in the car.

I've had double limo tint on a greenhouse-like Civic, you couldn't see into it with your hand pressed against the window. Parties in the woods with no lighting made it a nightmare. That was 5% I believe.

The next Civic got 20% all around, it was still too dark when outside lighting is at a minimum.

Factor in where you intend to be doing most of your night driving and decide from there.

I have had 8, 20, and 35. 35 is what I prefer. The others make driving at night difficult.

When we boughat my wife's car two years ago the dealership had already had the windows tinted. I liked it and it made the car look good. That is till we drove it at night. I don't know what number tint they used but as nice as it looks in the day light it's equally difficult to see out of at night. Only because we seldom drive at night I haven't had it removed. Because of that I've decided not to tint my FR-S. Just be sure to keep that in mind when you decide.

I have 15 all around on the Focus. That car isn't too bad to see out of, but it's also all windows. I'll probably get between 15 and 25 on the frs.

As dark as legally possible. 30% on the front and 20% on the rear glass is what I would do (while still being legal in ME).

Skurj 03-22-2013 10:12 AM

I have 30 and 20 on my other car. 30 on windows for each door and hatch, and 20 on the rear quarters. I will be going 30 all around on the BRZ.

I like how my tinting turned out (see signature).

HunterGreene 03-22-2013 10:46 AM

I have 35% in the front and 20% in the back. Good compromise for visibility.

chenshuo 03-22-2013 10:58 AM

I have the ForumlaOne Pinnicle series tint 30% all around. Depends on how much night time driving you'll do. Some people think 20% might be a little too dark for night time.
