find out the brand of tint first... regardless of how good the tinter is, it won't mean anything unless you get good tint...

what my tinter told me was it's not the tint film itse;f that matters... it's the adhesive. and although 3M is does adhesive as a specialty, they don't have the best tint (althoguh, it is NOT bad tint... 3M is actually great tint... but there are better... )

he told me that Llumar is the best tint, but it's very expensive...
next would be Johnson tint, which I had on my previous cars and were great.
after that would be 3M.

any other brands i'd be wary of.

 

I have Llumar tint. I guess that is why it was over $200 dollars. I didn't know much about tint before hand or the different types. The place I went is where alot of my other friends had gone and they said it was the place to go.

 

Here's my Black Sand Pearl tC with tint... it has 35% in the front and back windows & 20% in the hatch...

Scroll down for the tinted pictures... Just remember that I took these pics on a very bright and sunny day.
