Tinted 540 Pics (looking for on White, but post any color anyway)
Trying to decide to tint or not to tint, what do you have and what percentage.

Not the best pictures to show tint, but I already had these uploaded on my Flickr account. This is 30% Llumar Stratos.
Keep in mind, depending on the lighting condition, interior color, overcast/sunny day, tint % is very subjective. As you can see in the first photo, the tint looks quite dark (in parking garage at work) and then the second photo appears to be lighter (sun is shining in through the windshield). EDIT: Edited my post to show the pictures. For some reason the link was only showing up.

15% on the front sides / 5% (otherwise known as "limo" in CA) in the rear.
You can see in the pic from the front that the right passenger window affords enough view to make it comfortable to see through from inside, yet still plenty dark for my preferences. I had one car a few back where I had the limo on the front sides, and it was just way too dark for me - and the CHiPees... In all honesty, the limo tint in the rear can be difficult for some rearward maneuvers at night and even more so raining at night. But I've been doing my cars like this for so many years, I am used to it. I feel if you're gonna tint, do it dark... |

Dental floss between the badge & paint, and they drop right off. Maybe a touch of wax to remove any excess glue, if any. Usually not, if you remove them when brand new. Less than a few minutes worth of work. Seriously! |
