Windows Tinted
So I have been contemplating if I should get my windows tinted (including softop and hardtop) but don't know how the s2k would look w/ the soft top down and tinted windows rolled up.
Does anyone have any pictures? How do you think it'll look? Thoughts?
Anyone knows of a good tint place in Northern VA? I just dont want any bubbles and have a good job done on all the windows including softop and hardtop if i were to get it.

If your top is down, your windows should not be up. Problem solved. It looks stupid if your windows are either tinted or not.
i tinted the side and rear windows within a week of getting the car and i think the car looks better. it also helps cut down the glare at night from headlights when the top is up and keeps the car cooler in the summer...

I was thinking the tint definitely looks great w/ everything on but have to debate how it looks w/ the top off and windows up.

I can't stand seeing convertibles (whatever flavor they are) driving down the road with the top down and the windows up. I'm not a violent person at all but when I see one of these toolfactories, I'd like to drop kick their teeth through the back of their head. Off topic but the same thing applies to people that walk around with a blue tooth earpiece in their ear but arent talking on it at the time. Silly.

I think the window up or down looks good with tint, anything under 15% would kinda look tacky but thats why we have the option to roll them down or up. Really make no difference. I have 35% on both windows and have the window up every now and then. Dont tint the back window too dark, its a pain trying to back up at night. I have 15% on my softtop and hardtop, soft top i cant see anything, hardtop its alright cause the back windows larger

^I understand why people run windows up, i do it when it rains (tinted..)
still, it looks retarded cuz the s2k doesnt have a nice 'end' to the window..its kinda curved? some cars have nice straight lines that dont look too bad, but the s2k looks funny in my opinion
