Keep in mind that if you get 50% all the way around it will look darker than if you get 50% front and 15%rear like i did. The fact that the rear of my car is a lot darker than the front makes my front windows look that much lighter.


just a thought you should consider

I agree with Sisqocqk...I did 5% rear and 35% front...when the rear is so dark it takes the attention away from the front windows when it comes to cops...unfortunatly I still got ticketed for the front windows though thats only cuz the cop was a dick and he made me roll up my window u should be ok though, normally cops arent dicks like the one I got

Also a good idea, bcuz if someone were to try and break out a window to get into the car....the window tint will hold the class together, thus it wont fall outta the frame and allow the theif to get into the car....(I had that happen to me once, the cop that took the police report for me gave me crap about having my front doors tinted....but it saved my stereo from getting stolen...so I told the cop to suck a phat one.)

He didnt ticket me for my window tint, I guess he felt sorry for me having to deal with the vandalism....

my 2¢

You should do it yourself so there's a lot of air bubbles and make sure you use a nice purple tint. Haha!

Seriously you should. I got 35% on my back 5. Whatever % you go with, it'll look nice, jerk.

^LOL

Yup, tint makes ANY car look much better, IMHO. My sister just got 35% on all seven windows of her GT wagon. My car has 5% on the rear 5 and 35% on the front two. If I was to do it again, I'd just get 5% on all seven. I don't get f*cked with because A) I live in Oakland where they've got much better sh*t to do and B) Because it's an old school Legacy wagon
