Windows (Re)Tinted
#16
Okay guys, since this is on topic ... I've been looking around for tint options and tint shops. What types of tint did all you guys use and how much did it cost? ... I read that hybrid tint or metallic tint (slightly better i guess?) is the best that lasts like 5 years - a lifetime. I really want to tint my car too and I have the money, I'm just not sure what to look or ask for ... Is there a really big company who tints and tints good? Did you guys all get warrantys? Hybrid or metalic? ... Fill me in, so I can go get some!
Oh, and looks good Paar!

Looks sweet!!
I did mine myself with some limo black tint. Came out really good, since I have never tinted before. Both side windows cost me like $40 bucks in tint. The only downside is that they are too dark to see out at night, but I usually have em down anyway.... As for cops, my tint is the last thing on they'er mind. Never been stopped because of it.
Unfortunatly it's been two years and they need to be redone (the top parts are pealing and there are some holes in it from scratching inside the door). I might have mine redone by a pro this time, since it was such a pain in the *** the first time around .

I got 15 all around on my Beretta and got ticketed so I've been thinking about 35 on the Camaro just to stay legal.
