Well I have 5 percent tint all around and 5 on 20 in the back. SO my tint u can't even see through in the day time. Mirror tint u will get pulled over faster for rather than smoke tint. I got pulled over once, but I still have it on.

Go for the smoke. Looks better than the mirror.

IMHO mirror is ghetto. I'd go with smoke especially on a black car. Keep it stealth.

Go with Smoke Tint

I personally only think that mirror tint looks good on white or silver cars. I have 15% mirror on my white I30 and I like it a lot. Its just enough so that from the outside you can't see in at all, but from the inside I can still see out at night relatively well.

Btw I have never been pulled over for my tint.

get llumar platinum plus! it is awesome!

Looks very professional and clean.

I personally only think the mirror looks good on black and white maxes.

Lots of cars look awesome and not ghetto with its stock mirror tint.
as in lexas SUVs

Not ghetto at all. I also gotta say one thing about being pulled over, It has never happened to me ever, but my brother has smoke and he gets pulled over. His car isnt modded or anything like me either.

I think the mirror tint reflects well on black and white cars so that cops just think its the suns glare and not illegal tint!

This is all opinion though, but i gotta say cops are tough here in columbus ohio!! I hear about smoke tint ppl getting in trouble a lot.

Best of luck!
what color is your car?

Peace!

Mirror is ghetto, juvenile style. It looks nice but still ghetto. It's like the Ginzo with the gold, too much...

Smoke looks classy, + that's what the ballers use...
