pics of my tints

well i got my tints done about a week ago, didnt have time to take pics but here are some of them 20%, i really think they make my car look nicer , what you guys think, it looks kind of dark there but then again it was around 6 pm so it was getting late, seeing out of them is no problem, just a lil getting used to [/IMG]

It's strange. I love the privacy tinted windows offer, but I've always thought tint on a red car just looked awful. Hence, my tintless car. Eh, I told you it was strange.

hey i thought the same too, i thought tint on any car but black would look horrible, till i saw a camaro with tinted windows, there seems to be alot of red thirdgens around here, half of them got tinted windows, ilike the way they look with them, at first i thought it wouldnt look but hey i went for it, and yeh privacy kicks ***, i like no one being able to see inside my car, its funny pulling up next to people and they look at the car and turn back around, kind of hard to see if someone is looking at you back . i also like the way it leaves the interior dark enuff to fall asleep in

yeh i was going to get 35% tint too but i figured hey i might as well get 20, i believe thats what is legal out here in new york, which is kind of funny because i have a few friends that have 20% and there all different shades, i have a friend who has 20% and his tint is a lil darker then mine, i believe my 20% is pretty dark, at first i was kind of worried but hey darker is better, as long as you dont go limo.. popo around here dont harass you to much, i passed a few cops and no harassing yet , as long as i dont pull next to them i guess

yeah I see a lot of people arpound here with really dark tint, even that mirror stuff that fade out as it gets higher. Most people say the cops don't care, But I don't want to have to wast a $170 tint job.

yeh i hate those mirror tints, so stupid, i figure if im going to be pulling next to a cop i might as well roll the windows down just to play it safe, if its sunny oustide its not that hard to notice someone in the car but once it gets a lil dark its impossible. btw i payed 140 for my tints, with lifetime warantee
