I was typing Ghetto. So its "Tints yo"

 

then its ok

but i think its actually "mAd dArK tInTs, yO"

 

I apologize for the wrongful use of "word thuggery"

 

Draper Lake?

 

Nice

 

Wow 150$ is a great price. Here in Illinois they all want at least 250 with the highest being 350. I really dont want to pay that, so I dont know what to do.

 

Yeah, around here it's expensive. Umbra tinting in Schaumburg wanted $230 and they wouldn't do 20% for obvious reasons. I'm heading down there this weekend to the tinting place if you wanna come get yours done

And thanks i will get on that trim bright asap!

 

nice! keep the visor tint i like it!

 

Either of yuse guys know how the Trimbrite stands-up to COLD (as in subzero) weather???

I've been looking for this stuff for a few years for my rear wheel-well mouldings: they're all chipped-up.

Sooner: where'd you actually PURCHASE this stuff from? What store?

thanks,
gr

 

Posts #26, 30, and 32 tell you where to order this from. It holds well (to our trims) but the surface has to be clean and I wouldn't put it on any other body moldings.

I purchased a roll and cut it in half and it still gave me room to clean up the trim with a razor. Remember, the tape tends to shrink a bit in the summer so trim appropriately.

 

I can get it done for $140 flat in the city, $120 is you go through me

One step at a time...its very easy to get out of hand with modding cars/

 

So, you're saying it'll work on the trim around the windows but not the BODY moulding??
Sounds like "shrinkage" IS a factor?!

wow its more money where u guys live!!!
here in jersey they start at 79.99 legal tint which is 3 rear windows
and 99.99 for all around tints!
i had 2.5 all around and 35 on the windshield on my SI i couldnt see **** at night ! I got pulled over once in 2 years!!!

 

Paid $150 for my Ack. 35 all around. Legal here in ATL. Was supposed to be $175 but he screwed up with the phone quote.

 

yes sir

i had it on my car for two winters in DC...and two in OK...many COLD days...never had an issue...never chipped or pealed

got mine here http://www.amazon.com/BLACK-OUT-TAPE.../dp/B00029XD62

-Yea I would but I cant do it this week (not enough in the budget for that yet , I will soon tho).

 

20% for $150

 

Looks nice, I never have been a big fan of the ultra dark shade piece across the top but as long as you enjoy the dark ride.

 

20% WEAK!

 

dealer tinted all the windows but the front two before i bought it....i didnt want to pay to remove it so i just did the front two the same

 

I love my 20% sunroof tint here in Alabama, and I have 15% tint on all of the other windows.

 

Much Better!!

 

So - is sunroof tinting and GLASS EXPLOSION an urban legend, or is there truth to it?!
My installer literally would NOT tint my moonroof glass claiming this.

Sure would like to have that thing darker.....

Uh - keep in mind that different manf's have different gradients of "darkness". Mine is rated at 20%, but it's MUCh darker than that, technically.

thks sooner.

 

for some reason though my 20% tint doesn't look like 20%, doesn't seem dark enough.

 

what color is your interior? lighter interior makes the tint look less dark...and black interior makes it look darker.

 

I'm about to have my Maxima tinted at 20% this week hopefully.

 

Why is windshield sun visor strip considered "ghetto"? I see the visor strip on almost every single car every single day. It's functional in being that it helps keeps the sun out of the face. I had mine put on a few weeks ago and it made a huge difference.

 

Make sure to show us pics when you get it done.

 

Just tint the entire windshield 35%

 

yeah thats safe (and legal)

 

exactly what we need...pictures is yet another maxima with tinted windows

 

nice tint. i believe the law in IL is 50% all around

 

nice tint

 

Not to change the subject of this thread completely (sorry if I do), but has anyone ever use SnapTint?

 

You get what you pay for in tint. Around here you can get it done for $99, but it won't hold up and it will turn purple. Want the good stuff that will last, has no metal in it, and won't turn color, it's $200-$225.

 

definitely be careful, like he said you get what you pay for. If you are trying to save that much money the tints might not last as long.

 

35's the legal tint in ATL.

 

alright thanks.

 

nice........i want to get darker tinted windows.......i think i got 35% not sure.....
