Rep Power: 0 I got pulled over once for 35% tint on my front windows by a ***** in Bloomington that thought he was going to bust me for drunk driving 'cause he followed me out of a bar parking lot...I got the ticket dropped by showing the DA a pic of my car without tint on the windows and said I'd fixed it...just a suggestion!

Rep Power: 0 Awww that makes me sad. We're ripping the tint off my windows as we speak because I got a ticket. I have 20% and i'm the only person in my town that's gotten pulled over for the tint!!!!!! Good luck though- the 5% probably looks great! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 I would think that visibility would be seriously hampered by such
a dark tint. I used to have 20% (I think) on my old car and had to lower
the window at night to be able to distinguish details, like who I was
talking to!
Do those of you that have 5% have any difficulties?

Rep Power: 0 I have 15% and I have a hard time seeing out my side windows sometimes at night if it is a dark road. I am thinking of getting some side markers to illuminate that area so I won't have that problem anymore. The reverse lights on the sedan are weak so sometimes backing up at night is difficult, but I am a good backer so I don't worry about it.

Rep Power: 0 Hey VTECnique, I've seen the colored tint. i saw it a few days ago on a blue IS300, with blue fading down into black, makes me wish i got something like that. Looked awesome. But that would prolly attract cops more than ever. anyone here have that kind of tint?

Rep Power: 0 The colored tint is prety sweet also, i have only seen it once, on a yellow hatchback (yellow tint), in a magazine, looked real tight, but i like the way my car looks blacked out, i have only driven it twice since i got it put on, now it is sitting at home waiting on me to return, i am in ABQ, New Mexico, for the holidays, hope everyone had a wonderful christmas, and hopes for a happy new year.

Rep Power: 415 I have 5% on the rear windows of my sedan... and its sweeeeet. and no I haven't yet had problems with nighttime stuff. it took some getting used to when checking blind spots in traffic... coz you gotta remember everything is darker and bright lights won't stand out like they used to. anyways, its awesome, i love my tint.
The other night I was pickin up my grandmother @ the bus depot. unfortunately greyhound was running 1 hr behind schedule so I had to wait an hour in my car. I figurred i'd drop into the back seat for some privacy and comfort.... well what a sweet idea.... CREED kept me company [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 I often drop into the back of my car for privacy reasons. If i ever have to park and wait for a long time, just take my remote, put in a good disc and chill in da back, I think i've got 15% on the back, but it could be darker. I didn't have it put on.
