What percent are you guys getting? I can't make up my mind on what I want to go with... 35 and legal, or 20 and chance it? I know that depending on the car and interior tint will look darker or lighter. Thoughts or opinions from those that are already tinted?

@DarrenDriven I just scheduled for 5:30ish

I'm still trying to decide this myself...

I was considering going with 20 for the rear window and 35 for the sides. If he'll do it, that is.

He told me he'd do that.

I got 35% on SWP and it honestly looks plentyyyy dark. I was really considering going 20% too. Happy with my decision.

JonnyRocket 03-24-2014 08:25 PM

I'm thinking 35 sides, 20 rear. Looking at JWF's website, the heat blockage for both is pretty damn close. And I know my wife would be uncomfortable with 20 all around. But the car seat will be sitting under the rear window so it's getting 20.

Would you mind throwing a picture of your car up? I have SWP as well so it'd be cool to see what 35 looks like.

@Dvipercop Here you go, I'm the first SWP about 3 cars up. This was at the Perrin meet.

The black one with the gold wheels is mine and I'm running 20% all around

Tinting is underway! I decided to go 20% all around. I'd rather have it a little to dark than a little to light. Thanks Darren for setting this up for us.

Photos!

I'm just going with legal, especially in the rear window since I have the auto-dimming mirror. I notice that the darker the rear window with the autodimming mirror makes it really tough to see at night.

Dvipercop 03-26-2014 04:52 PM

Quick question for anyone really... On the inside of your windows, do you have a rubber strip along the bottom where the glass meets the door? I just got home and noticed there is a gap there but I honestly can't remember if there ever one there in the first place. Pics to follow...

Lets see some of those tints that got done today!
