Darker tint?
Debating getting darker tint. I go the current tint when I was in Cali but i moved back to south TX so it's crazy hot here. I like my current tint but wanna go for a different darker look so any suggestions appreciated.

I have 35% all around with nothing on the windscreen. I live in Florida with light green eyes, so I feel your pain. I'm about to have the car re-tinted. 20% all around, with a 50% for the entire front windscreen. That should really lower the light in the car AND not be nearly as noticeably illegal as 10 or 5%....
Good looking car BTW.

lumar is good but I would suggest Suntek for the extreme texas heat, it will repel sunlight like a straight up champ. For your percentage I would recommend 15% and 20% for your rear window. This setup for me held up nice in the Oklahoma heat. Suntek has a lifetime warranty by the way.

Monaco blue? I have the same color with grey interior and I decided to go with 20% Llumar ceramic all the way around. I skipped on getting the Airblue 80 on my windscreen because it would have doubled the cost.
Was originally debating between 20% and 35%, but once I saw them both side by side in the tint shop there was no question. I'm super happy with the result. Here's a couple of photo's I've taken since I had it installed. They aren't the best, but they should give you an idea of what it looks like. |
