Default Window Tinting

What color and intensity did you get your windows tinted with?


Trying to figure out what will look the best and keep the heat out.

black, 20%. 5% is a bit to dark for me, but 20% is a clean, and 30% wasn't dark enough

50% is really light.... it must be a typo ... 5% is like limo tint, 20% is a good number to go for.

5% all around

Interior shot
Open Door shot
Exterior Side shot
Exterior quater shot



Yes I roll down the windows when I'm backing up in my driveway, or backing in anywhere. Why chance it? And it's not a big deal.

Yes they are dark at night, But not impossible to see.
You require a skill after awhile of driving with 5%

BTW Anything above 35% Is usesless

I got the driver and passenger windows both done for $40. I don't know the percentage but it's legal in VA.
