Tints...Yay or Nay?

Raymond Lin · 28 Jun 2011 at 21:54

I notice a lot of cars have them now, are you a fan of them?

I don't have it on my car and I don't think it needs to unless I am doing it for looks but part of me like to have it, but another part of me thinks it looks bad.

Then again, its not permanent and I don't think it's that expensive? It's just a sheet of plastic isn't it?

PMKeates · 28 Jun 2011 at 21:55

Please don't.

I paid £150 for mine. Depends on the car I guess.

CliffyBiro · 28 Jun 2011 at 21:59

But it's black! So it matches

The missus has (legal) tints on her Tahoe but it's kinda worth it here as it keeps the car cool and they are 'proper' tints which block UV which is useful given the amount and strength of sunshine.

In the UK though....hmmm

Are you gangster?

depends on the car and the tint..

Raymond Lin · 28 Jun 2011 at 22:05

Obviously just the back windows.

Limo black on the rear two and rear window and the lightest possible on the front two of my S80, in dark metallic blue the car looks rather heavy and dark.

lol theres no stopping Raymond now he's got his car...

For the record I@m not a massive fan of them but on a black car they do tend to look good imo

Are you planning to sell drugs?

Maccapacca · 28 Jun 2011 at 22:09

Where are you RL, maybe my tint guy could help you out ?

Chris1712 · 28 Jun 2011 at 22:10

I like them, but the fact you can't have the same on the fronts make it all look silly imo,

sigma · 28 Jun 2011 at 22:10

Limo tint on the back 3 for the win! Make it look like a van!

LOL, I am still in the "research" and learning phase!

Limo tints on just the rears and nothing on the fronts looks wick. And most windows have a tint on them from factory. So if you do tint the fronts light, you still have to make sure they're up to code. Personally, I'd rather do a very light tint on all windows for uniformity instead of limos on the back making the vehicle look like a panel van.
