Factory OEM tint > *

I love the way it comes, doesnt bother me at all.

 

bump

 

Good point^^

 

Cant wait to get mine done. Im going to get 5% rear 20% sides, with a 5 inch white banner on my windshield

 

It's a pain in the ___ for my drivers side windows. I took it once already and they redid it because of little bubbles, now I have to take it again because of another small bubble on the back quarter and big one on the drivers side.

But it costed me $200+ so I'm not stopping until it's absolutely perfect.

 

Yeah if you're going to pay that much for tint, they better do it right.

I have:

Windshield = V-Kool 70
Everywhere Else = Huper Optik Ceramic 30

Cost: $438

It cost a lot, but they are really good tint. I park my car in the hot Hawaiian sun, and it takes less than 3 minutes to cool down with my AC. Unfortunately for me, the passenger side tint has 3 major scratches, prolly on the film before installation since you can't feel the scratch. I'm having them redo it on Thursday... hey if I paid that much, it better work.

I went with legal tint, and I gotta say... its really not dark enough. When you look at it, you think its not even tinted, but then if you see a car that's not tinted, then you say, "Oh, it is tinted"... but yeah, not dark enough for my liking. I got it legal because in Hawaii I heard its $280 per window. OUCH.

 

Your right about that. It's annoying to keep going back and forth to shops to get thinks fixed but gotta do what u gotta do.

 

god i love the hiro rims

 

<< check my profile not a good pic of the tint though sorry.

 

ayoooo whered u get ur tint done?

is there a good place to go and get ur windows tinter here in Jeesey??

 

I believe mine are 5% all around

 

They fixed my tint and it looks good now...

When you got 5% all around did you tint your moon/sunroof as well? I didn't get mine done, and the difference in color looks awkward.

 

I didnt do my sunroof.....Its not that important to me plus u cant really see the difference IMO.

 

Well good work is not cheap and cheap work is not good! That is very true about window tinting. Its about good technique so make sure the installers at the shop of your choice have skill and years behind them.

I highly recommend 3M window films being that they have a lifetime warranty against any defects of any kind including changing color. Any peeling, fading, purple windows, hazing will be covered. Now the film is made in California and we know how hot it can get and the amount of sun Cali gets throughout the year. So for other films which are made in the Eastern United States or German made (Huper Optik) these films are not ( and I have tried personally) not up to par with 3M in my opinion being 3M invented window films and have exclusive technology for testing and in their films. I do understand most films have a lifetime warranty but make sure if you go with another film besides 3M, GET THAT WARRANTY!!

If any of you guys have questions for window tint just ask, I'll be more than happy to help.

 

That is disgusting! You might as well put steelies on because that is what your rims look like now. Also, If your gonna go that route, you forgot to black out your headlights and third tail light. Why do so many people do this to their cars? It is hideous! I think contrasting colors looks alot better, such as 5% tint on a white car or silver rims on a black car.

 

I like everything black out on ^^^ but I don't like the rims, chrome them and then maybe it would be a little more color coated for ^^^ hahahahahaha

 

I just got my Black Sand Pearl and getting my windows tinted on tuesday (165). I am looking at getting 20% down.
Should look nice with the black exterior!!!!

 

i got 35% in the front and 15% in the rear/quarter.. looks nice, i just wanted to do 15% all around but the tint shop said they couldn't do it because it was "illegal" and since i was already there i just went with 35% & 15% in the back. pics comin' soon!

 

has anybody tint their car with the reflective tint yet ?? especially flint mica ?

 

3M has a film called Black Chrome which is reflective, I'll see if I can get a pic up
