Tinted Windows *pics*
 

Yay, finally got it done! 15% all the way around, Madico film, lifetime warranty. Going back in 3 weeks to get 'touch ups', ie: press the film down securely after it cures.

that looks GOOD! :tup: Did they touch the windshield?

Would a lighter tint be 10%, and would darker be 20%?

thnks.

Thanks man! No they didn't touch the windshield. The % is a measurement of how much light goes through the tint. So, 35% would be lighter, 15% would be darker, 5% would be as dark as a limo.

No, its the other way around. !0% would be darker and 20% would be lighter.

Thanks slawek and blahman, 10% is darker, 20% lighter. That always confused me.:confused:

Yup, the lower the %, the less light getting thru! :) In Ontario, we dont have any % values for legal limits, it's up to the officers discretion. It's not bad during the day, like you can see that there is a person there wearing a seatbelt.. But at night, good luck :P 35% seems to be the standard for "legal" around here.. most places wont do below that on the front windows, but if you tell them you're aware of the risks, they'll do it.

i like that! no legal limit for tinting!

hey man, looks good. i told you it isnt that hard to see out of them.. :) ride looks nice. and wow its snowing by you already!

Sweeet! Your car looks really good with tints! Nice job! I love the rims and rear bumpers on those cars. Once again, it looks great! :rockon:

Ya Bump to CenZ for helping me make a decision! Thanks a lot man, appreciate it.

Thanks for the positive respone! I'd really like some bigger rims and a BuddyClub2 kit, but I'm so broke right now..

I used to hate red Civics but yours is making me like them.. lol. :tup: Nice.

did they tint over ur 3rd brake light?

^^^ thats wierd..... when they tinted over my rear third i didnt see a line over it???? is that black vinyl?

yeah mine dont look like that either, it looks like vinyl, i like, i wanna put that on the top where the dots are cause they didnt tint that for me...

nice tint Slawek.. you have any trouble seeing through the back window at night? how much you pay for ?

It's a little bit of a learning curve seeing out the back. It's not bad though. I can see myself getting used to it quickly. Right now it's more of a challenge, but really not bad.

I paid $220 CDN, taxes included. There are cheaper places out there, but they dont use Madico film. :tup:

Wadup
 

They did a good job. it looks great, i think you can ge the front done for about 20 extra, atleast where i got mine they did it for 20 extra.

i think the % on the tint is what percent of the light from the inside escapes through the outside. like if its 35% than 35% of the visible light can escape through the tinting, if its 5% than 5% of the light can escape and so on...

% = the percentage of light that can come in.

nice tint. I dont know what the hell i would do if it was snowing where i lived. I feel sorry 4 u.

The snow photograph looks from last winter to me, not yet this year.

Tint looks like a nice way to start ;)
Though as normal, the Ontario front windows law is vague.. some cops might harass you on it. As for getting used to the driving, been through nighttime in the rain yet? Fun times at first ;)

congrats

You are correct! *hands you a cookie*

First time 2nite! It's not THAT bad... I think I'm used to it now coz it wasn't so bad :cool:
