Need advise on tint please....

hj058 · 02-06-2007, 02:23 AM

hey all...
i should be taking delivery for my car within a month or sooner n im looking into tinting already...(i know its too early but ya...im already thinking..i gues im excited n nervous)...anyways...im thinking of either 20% for rear 3 pieces n 35% for the front two...or just 35% all around...
which one will look better? btw my car is black sapphire...
or is there any other suggestions?
thanks for all ur help!!

I would go with 35% all around...
But that's me.

go 30% all round....you will appreciate the extra 5%. i believe legal is 35% but then your dark color (black sapphire) offsets/contrasts less with the dark car...30% is the way to go bro!

Does anyone know if tint is legal in all provinces? If so, is 30% the limit????

Yeah I'm wondering about the rules on tint as well. I'm looking into going 30% also :rocks:

ya...it is confusing on the limit cuz som ppl say u cant tint at all but some ppl never get ticket w/ tint windows even at 15 or 20%....

For the same percentage all around. Otherwise it looks bad, IMO.
