those who have a built in antena in their back window, does a metallic tint cause a problem with the reception?
is non-metallic tinting any good?...because i have heard a lot of people having problems with it turning purple and fading. plz respond

i don't think having any tint will have any affect on your antenna/reception. but as far as tint turning purple.... it's because the tint is cheap and you used cleaner with ammonia.

The cheap, low quality tints fade and turn purple in time. Just ask the place you're getting your tint at. They'll tell you which tint will fade or not since there are different types.

^ Damn, really? Well, the place I went to has a really good reputation. I've had my tint done there for my previous cars. And I guess knowing some of the people that work there helps too.

Even metallic tint will fade. But it wont be as noticeable. And it takes longer. Biggest plus side, is that it wont bubble up easily like many cheap tints.

I just picked up a 04' Civic lx sedan, and I am in some serious need of some window tint. I haven't gotten a car tinted before and I was wondering what you guy’s would recommend? As far as tint goes (Brand) and the process that they use to apply the tint. (Baked on, or sticky film)

Thanks for the advice

3M makes good tint. Most places use "sticky film," the baked on stuff costs more and requres the removel of the windows.

well on my car.. i just got my car tinted black.... 50% front and 5 % back... and i thought it didn't effect the radio reception.. but when you have the rear defrost on... your radio reception gets some nasty static......

Got 15% charcol professionally installed all around for $200. The best mod I ever had done for me hands down, I would never do it myself after seeing the equipment and programs the guys who did my tint had. The quality shows and I always get compliments on it. So in closing, don't try to half-*** car tinting.

i got %13 all the way around and i love it, but so do the cops. check your local laws about the % and what windows can be tinted!

for instance in NJ.
nothing on drivers or pass. side doors. any % u want on back doors and back window.
