when it comes to something like tint for you car, dont just go with the cheapest. make sure they do quality work. and just as important is the tint. make sure they use good tint (like llumar or something else with a lifetime warranty that wont fade).

 

I'd say the most important thing about buying tints is to see what other work they've done, like any cars at their store or something. And find out what their warrenties are, that's all that really matters, price is your personal preference. Like this one place up here will tint all the way around for about $200 , have a lifetime warrenty on fading and peeling/bubbling, and for an extra $30, if you get a ticket that requires you to take your illegal tints off in order to not have to pay the ticket (that's the case 90% of the time), the place will even put your tints back on after you get it taken care of.

 

i just did 35% on the front 2 and 15% the rest of the way around. already have a small air bubble popping up, is this normal?

 

When you say "small" what size do you mean?! Penny-sized?! Or smaller?! A couple of millimeters in diameter?! You may just be able to pop it miniscule hole into it with a safety pin and kinda push the air out.

If it's bigger than the size of a penny, I would take it back to get it looked at. I guarantee you they will just mesh it down and put a heat gun to it. If that doesn't work, they'll probably just pop it, too.

 

if it's water, just leave it. it will come out. if it's air, bring it back. dont pop it. it's tint not vinyl. if you put a pin sized hole in the tint the little spec of light will drive you crazy.

 

Haha!! I had an air bubble that I popped. I can't see anything through it. Safest bet is to go ahead and send it into the tint shop.

^^^Good link, very informative. SUX to live in Cali, sux more to live in NY

 

Seems like that information is old... at least for Alabama... Hmm... Definitely good to know info, though!

 

thanks for the link!
well it was kinda funny cuz it says ANY/ANY/ANY/ANY for the place i live lol
i guess its because its super hot here

anyway....im thinking getting the darkest tint for all 6 windows.
kinda dangerous?

and yeah i have a question.
is it ilegal to not put the licence plate in front in your state?

 

Rear plate is required only in Alabama.

 

Nice ride. All you need is a drop and some b-pillers to go with the nice shine of your glass so it blends in.

 

Nice job.

Nice rims too, Are those 18's?

And if they are, do they rub anywhere?

Keep us posted of any changes you do to your ride.

some tints i've seen give off a purplish hue, why is that?, I'm thinking about getting tint. i'd like ot get black, but not too dark. Just interested to see if anyone here has, or ahve links to pics that have an SSM xA with silver tint. I'm just interested to know how it would look like. thanks

 

I've got 2% on all sides that's a 5% over a 40%, I know it's 2% cause that's what the officer said it gave. DIdn't take it off though.
