You have a greater chance of getting caught with mirrored than black. But since you don't care ... it's your call

I would say black all the way, especially on a black car. I don't like mirror tint really at all, especially if its on a black car.

I hate mirror tint on cars for some reason. I have a black civic and with black tint. Can't go wrong with that.

Mirror tint usually looks tacky to me, I would say black for sure.

i think the mirror tint fadin to black looks good...im thinkin of doin that...but with the mirror tint at the top, not at the bottom. to me, when its at the bottom, it looks like condensation.

but if you don't want that, i would say go with all black...IMO, the lighter the tint, the more waste of money....if you're gonna tint it, breakin the law, why not go all the way, and go limo tint?

get black. on my 00 accord, my mom got pulled over while driving it because a cop thought the tint was illegal, although it wasnt the illegal type...it was called 'chrome' or something.

i have 35% mirror on my car check my pics. I have some new ones i need to upload. My tint doesnt look ghetto, only at certain angles it looks mirror. Most of the time you can tell the windows have some kinda tint on them or either it looks black. I can't explain it, but my tint does not look like a mirror all the time.
