Potential group buy (window tinting) and mini meet

Sea2Ski · 03-04-2008, 03:08 PM

I did not get them yet. I can not decide between 4.0 and 5.0.
I promised myself I will order them by end of the week though.... I want to use Hyper's knowlege.

razer8724 · 03-04-2008, 03:10 PM

Please add me in as a definate! I have a coupe, if that extra information is needed. Still anymore openings left?

choiffer · 03-04-2008, 03:15 PM

haha I got my car tinted at Shades of Gray.

If you goto their website forum, they have pictures of every car they have tinted.

What shade % is that?

Sea2Ski · 03-05-2008, 10:05 AM

I am betting it is 35%. It will look darker, because they have a black interior.
Lets see wha tthe answer is.

What are you thinking of going with? I think I am gonig to go with 35% as well. I might want to go to 40%, but that might be too light. Uggg... the choices!

Sam Da Man · 03-05-2008, 10:06 AM

35!!

choiffer · 03-05-2008, 11:26 AM

its 30% haha. Tinting darkness can have a different effect from the interior color to Exterior color contrast. Since my car is white and my leather is black it looks almost as dark as 15%.

40% is def too light. You can barely tell that it is tinted in sunlight.

Sam Da Man · 03-05-2008, 11:38 AM

ahh i want 30% now lol

fizzle · 03-05-2008, 11:43 AM

remember if u have lighter interior go darker, if you have dark interior go lighter. i have beige and went 22%...it looks perfect during the day and night....the one thing i hate about people with really dark tints is that you cannot see shit at night...also those are the people who get pulled over more. remember go conservative.

ejazbmw · 03-05-2008, 11:51 AM

damn is it to late to join? I'm interested but it seems like I'm to late

whytboy · 03-05-2008, 12:04 PM

im in for any day
I met this guy at the philly auto show and saw alot of his work and was impressed... I was planning on going to him, this will give me a good excuse.

Sea2Ski · 03-05-2008, 04:00 PM

Sorry ejazbmw and whytboy, we are booked. The max we were allowed is 10. Now remember, often people cancel out of things like this. Therefore, I am putting people on a waiting list. I will put you on it in the order that they were submitted in the thread. Fair is fair.

*********FOR THOSE THAT SIGNED UP AND ON THE "DEFINITE" LIST**************

More people want to take part in this opportunity! This is why we need you to cancel if you know that you can not make it as early as possible. Odds are, that if you cancel out, someone else would love to get your spot. I understand that things happen and sometimes you just can not make it on the scheduled day. In that case, please let us know ASAP, so someone else can benifit.

Thanks everyone! I know this will be a success: We will meet other members, and get our rides a little sweeter, and the tint shop gets a full days $$$$! Everyone wins!

(ps. I am still working on a "schedule" of when people should think about showing up)

thas fine..i think i'm ganna stop by anyways just to see in person what percentage is most appealing to me

Sea2Ski · 03-06-2008, 03:45 PM

Excellent! Remember, it takes time to get it done, and people are going to be coming/going throughout the day. So, you might only be able to see a couple of percentages in person while you are there.

But I am glad to hear you will be showing up!

justice · 03-06-2008, 04:58 PM

add me to the waiting list, I don't live far from there so if someone doesn't show up at the last minute, shoot me a pm.
