I want to tint my windows and need help with the shade...those of you with tinted windows what shade did you go with or recommend?

I want to go with 20% but I don't want to get haggled by the cops, and 35% seem to be a little too light...what do you guys think? Thanks.

 

I have 35% and it is plenty dark, but I also have the black interior. Since you're in Chicago, 35% should be more than enough.

 

I have 35% and it's fine with me. You can do a search w/ my username in the gallery forum and i think i have some pics that show w/ windows up

2 layers of 5%

 

I actually have that on my Civic.

No tint on the daily S2K though.

 

thanks guys...I will most likely go with 35%.

 

yea i had 35% on my last teg too... was too light.. went with 5% which was great.. but after almost hitting a few ppl i decided 20% was the way to go

 

i have 35% and only on the side windows. when close it's easier to see in it in the day time. at night it's harder obviously. when you are farther away and looking through the side it's very hard to see in it whether day or not.
i didn't do the rear because i like the option of seeing clearer when im backing up. i can flip the rear view if i think someone's headlight is too bright.
you have to consider in the night time it makes it harder for you to see out of the side windows compared to a tintless window. it can be nerve racking when making a turn like into a driveway and not being able to see pedestrians in a poor lit street. in the day time it's fine, almost as clear as a tintless window.

 

exactly the reason why i didnt like it.. it jus looked like factory tint.. which is close to nothing...

best way.. is some tint shops have samples.. look at those
