Im broke right now, but im planning to put some eibach sportline. Stop making fun at me. lol, im not the only one with Monster Truck.

 

20% Hatch, 35% rest of the way. (Except windshield)
Driver and Rear Quarter...

Hatch...

And before you start to bag on me for not lowering it...

The only time I was pulled over the cop just wanted to know what kind of car I had. (I was so sweatin' bullets because I thought he was going to pinch me for some of my 'slightly' illegal mods. ) Just be sure to check your State Tint Laws to find out how much you can tint. Lastly, when you do tint-do the sides all the same %. It breaks the flow of the lines on the tC when I see the rear quarters darker then the driver/passenger windows. (Just my honest opinion.)

 

Pic from about a year ago when the car was basicaly stock, but its 3M "dark" 20% on the sides and hatch:

 

Mine's 15%, took some getting used to.

However, there are a lot of raised trucks and cars with HID lights around where I live, it's nice to not be blinded every time I check my rearview mirror.

35% is good tint if you're concerned about going too dark.

 

What is a good percentage to get on the front windshield. I was thinking 20% ALL the way around but was curious as to others thought would look good.

I like The Instigators tints. It seems like a real dark 20% but I don't know if that would be too dark for the front.

 

I just got tint installed, I went with Suntek Infinity OP 35% quaters and 20% for the back glass. This is a semi reflective tint that changes appearance under different lighting conditions. It appears black when sunny and silver/reflective on cloudy days.

 

So I added this to the picture thread sticky. Keep them coming though, I know a LOT of you have tint...

 

Usually when you see tint with that purple hue, it's just black tint that has faded, and yes, it's awful. To avoid that, avoid the cheap tint! Most shops offer three or four different brands of tint, and you can bet that the cheapest two are going to fade within a few years. I highly recommend 3M. I have 3M 20% all around, but no pictures yet. Maybe I'll go wash the car right now and take some pics... Yeah, I'll be back soon with some pics.

 

Thanks, I don't know much about tint so I didn't know why it turned purple. I guess you get what you pay for!

 

Alright, here's some pics. 3M 20% on everything (except windshield) with a 7 inch 5% banner on the windshield.







By the way MJVsTC, 3M has a warranty (I don't remember how long) that it won't crack, bubble or fade. I know there's a few other companies that do as well, so look for that if you don't want them to turn purple.

 

is the 7 inch strip enough to cover those dots by the rear view mirror? im thinking of getting it done.

 

Yeah, I didn't ask for seven inches, I just asked him to go just below the rear view mirror so that there was a flat, uninterupted line straight across the bottom of the banner and that's how it turned out. And it's about 8 inches on the outsides and 6 1/2 inches in the middle, so I rounded.

 

I have 32% all around, but as I posted in another thread, I got pulled over and cited for it (Cali)
I'd take some pix and post, but it's going to rain tomorrow, and the tC is dirty.
I'll take and post some pix of mine with the fronts removed and the rear/hatch with the 32%

3M has a lifetime warranty. I forgot to mention that I have 3M tint on mine when I posted pix back on page 1. 3M costs more, but is definitely worth it IMHO.

 

 

I wanna see more pictures!

 

I don't know if you wanted to see more of mine or not but here they are...

PS: it was misting/raining so the spots you see are water.

 

Does anyone have a picture of Black Sand Pearl with 35% black tint all around? I really wanna see this. Thanks.

 

I just got my BSP TC tinted 15% all around, with 50% on the front windshield...
I love it especially at night because you can't see in from the outside and isn't hard to see out of at night, but if you are worried about being pulled over I would recommend 20%.

Try to get some pics up soon.

 

I have to say that if anyone gets into an accident with the windshield tinted, you're going to be in a world of hurt.
I can imagine that the law will come down hard on you.
Tread carefully there...
