what kind of tint do you guys advise for a 2003 Maxima SE - Gray Luster. I just gave up my 99 black maxima and got the 2003.

 

Everyone is going to tell you different, but since you have the same color as me, i went with 35%. I like darker tints, but i like to be able to see out the windows at night!

 

I have the same color, too, and have 50% front, 35% rear. Law in my state is no tint on the front so I didn't want to attract attention. If I had it to do again I probably would have put 35% all around and just dealt with the ticket if I got one.

 

20% all around...but thats if u have cops that wouldn't give a ticket for it unless u were speeding.

 

20% charcoal/black. Classic.

Thanks men. We have the same color and I think I will also get the 35%. It looks off the hook

 

I have 5% all around and 20% in the front. I like it because its nice and dark and nobody can see inside your car. Check out my homepage for pics.

 

check homepage for pics of my grey lustre with tint

 

I got my windows done with Llumar metallic tint all around 18% not the front window.. Check out my homepage.. I've got some more pics I took this weekend I'll try to put up today...

Too much work here at the office.. I don't seem to have time to surf the .org like I used to... Damn work! arrgh!

 

Just to make this clear for myself, (i'll try to explain this my best) is the percentage of tint the amount of light you can see from the inside to the outside???

 

Yes, the tint % is the amount of light that is allowed to pass through. The higher the %, the lighter the tint.

 

I knew that but does it stand for how much light goes in? and anyone in New Hampshire that does good window tinting? Thanks

 

How did he not just answer this?

 

How about checking the local yellow pages for an auto service place near you that does tinting. Then, call them and ask about their rates, types, and warranties (VERY important)...

and also, check the New Hampshire law to ensure you don't do it incorrectly and get harrassed (this is well known in Chicago... tinted windows = more traffic stops).

The percentage is outside -> in 35% of outside light is let in for example...

 

Never mind

 

20% charcoal/black. Classic.

 

that Llumar tint is what I've been looking for forever.....the problem is I haven't found a shop in NYC that does it...

I ended up with 20% Madico Onyx black reflective film which isn't as reflective as that llumar stuff but its still reflective nonetheless....

I'm happy with it

 

The darker the better. Right now I have 5% on my rear windows and rear windshield, and 15% on my driver and passenger front windows. I'm going to be getting another layer of limo on my back windows, to make it double limo on the back half of my car, and going to get it down to about 7% on my front windows and hopefully about 80% on my front windshield.

 

Bet other drivers will just love you when you pull out in front of them 'cuz you can't see **** at night.

 

Yeah you can. 80% on the windshield doesn't do **** at night, and I can see out fine with limo on the back. The only time I can't see out is if there are no street lights or outside light of any kind, in that case, you look around where your car is before you pull out, or roll down the windows!
