Rep Power: 0 Go with the same shade all around. I've got 20 all around and it looks great. I've never been pulled over before in my civic, and my previous car which i had for 5 years, i had 20 and was never pulled over. You should be o.k.

Rep Power: 0 I had 20% tint on my '99 Accord and it was fine ... and never got pulled over ... make sure its dark to contrast from the silver of the car ... I got a silver 2k2 si and I will get it tinted in spring with 20%. It should look phat.

Rep Power: 0 There's no need for 20% tint.. what the hell?!
I can testify that 35% is PLENTY dark enough... especially at night parking in reverse, how dark do you really want? Hell, I have sex in my car all the time, but never been busted.. that should be enough proof.

Rep Power: 0 35% is alright, but 20% is a hella lot better for blazin' it up...5% is the best but running into pedestrians while turning left and right might hurt your driving record...unless you're counting points...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
I have my windows wrapped in 20%, and about the backing up parking situation, just roll the window down or open the door...I do...[IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 01coupe .... we really didn't need to know that.... 
ok i'm new at all this tint stuff. i'm guessing 20% is darker than 35%
so are there different types of tint depending on the quality?
which type would be suitable?

Rep Power: 0 Grumpy, trust me on this one. Get 20% Tint!!! You can't go wrong man. I used to own a Silver coupe with 35% tint...and I regretted it so much. I wanted 20% in the first place, but stupid Honda said I had to sign some liablility crap so I just got 35%. Every time I looked at it, I always complained it wasn't dark enough because it basically defeated the purpose of a tint for me. I wanted a Tint that where no one could see what stuff I got inside my car, but with 35% people can still see clearly what you got, day time or night time.

Rep Power: 0 I also found a nice added safety feature of having a tint. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] If you get into an accident, it keeps the smashed glass together, thus preventing it from flying every where (i.e. your face 
)
