Alright people, should I tint the windows?

And if yes, what kind of tint should I get?

stupid question...YES!!!, you can go with just a normal black tint or theres other options like reflective tint, like i have on my car, click on my link in my sig to check it

I can't tell if the black would go good with that shade of blue.

What exactly is reflective tint? In some pics it looks black, in some silver.

thats the beauty of it, when its really sunny it will almost look like a mirror, and when its not as dark it'll be black, so with this tint you get two in one pretty much, and mine are heat and UV reflective so it doesnt heat up as much as conventional tint

How much did that cost?

I'd just get black... it never goes out of style. Problem with mirror tint is that in a month it will probably be out of style again.

Get 20% all round, and it would look great.

All around...does that include the windshiled also? I thought having the windshield tinted was super illegal.

all around as in the windows, it is illegal to tint the windshield

[Naich]

no never ever tint the windshield lol.... i meant all 4 doors and the rear

Ok. Is 20% illegal? I'm not too concerned with it, just wondering.

Check your state regs cause every state is different on the % of tint they will allow.

Visor.................6"

Front doors............72%

Rear doors..........72%

Back window.........any

So back window, you can't have any but I will anyway. But what does it mean by visor?

Hmmm, those ratings sound backwards to me. It usually rated in what percentage of light will penetrate thru, yours sounds like what percentage of light will be blocked so on your:

front and rear doors - you can use tint that will block up to 72% of the light

back window you can block as much light as you like, paint it black if you want.

As for the visor, I believe that means that, from the top of your windshield, you can apply tint no taller than 6".

So that would make front and rears 28%?

I'll stick with the 20.

[Naich]

no nono....

The ratings are correct.... those mean:

Back window- you can use anything (including limo tint)
Side windows- you can only use 72% (which is like almost clear)
visor- this is the piece that goes on the front windshield where you can put a banner (like the aleromod.com ones we're making) on the top of the windsheld.


In NJ, we're allowed to have any on the rear, 20 on the back doors, nothing on the front doors or windsheld.

I've been pulled over for it 3 times (all within a month of eachother) and given 1 ticket (OUT OF STATE WHICH IS BS, in PA on the way into carlisle).

How much was the ticket for?

And how much of a tint do you have?

[Silentalero]

you mean tickets.... lol

lol, he said he only got one!

30 is a bit dark.
