I just got my Max tinted with Llumar Platinum Plus. The shop did an awesome job and it looks really good on the Max. I was coming home from the shop and decided to open my sunroof panel. I was almost blinded by the bright sun coming through. I was checking to see who all got the sunroof tinted as well. With the panel open, it seems as though the rest of the tint job is worthless.

Before I get

I will be posting pics once it stops raining.

 

Sunroofs are made to enjoy the sunshine. If you don't like it, close the hatch. If you want sun, open it up. IMHO putting tint on a sunroof is retarded.

 

 

You can enjoy the sunshine when the sunroof is open. My sunroof is tinted !
It matches the other windons.

I'll be tinting my moonroof...my sister and my girlfriend's Honda and Acura have tint moonroofs and I like them a lot. It should make the interior less hot and less intense. Maybe I'll try and tint it myself, since it's such a small rectangle.

 

Yes, made to enjoy the sunshine, not BAKE THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD! With no tint, the shade might as well BE the sunroof because you can't leave it open or you'll get cooked through the glass.

I tinted mine 15% and enjoy it much more now that I have 3 choices (shade closed, shade open, window open) instead of two (shade closed, window open).

 

I'm getting 5% on my sunroof soon.

 

 

Yea, I know, but whenever I look at my car at a distance, i see all tinted windows and on the top of the car a clear sunroof...It drives me NuTs

 

Craig Mack, what are you talking about? You can still see easily out the sunroof with 5%... it's backlit by this multi-million candlepower thing. At night you don't have to see out, or you can open it. When the sun is shining you have to keep the shade closed so it's useless as a vent.

I say to the way it came stock and to 5% or mirror tint.

 

exactly, everyone should tint their sunroof. it is so much more convenient. my audi has factory tinted sunroof and i fail to understand why nissan didn't do the same

 

Did it stop raining yet???

 

It raining even harder today

I am going to get the sunroof tinted. I don't know if there are any restrictions on the tint on a sunroof in NC.

 

Any worries about cracking the glass from the heat? Here in Hawaii, I've been told to tint the sunroof w/ reflective tint, not smoke/charcoal. And even then, there's no guarantees.

 

No worries. Besides the platinum plus is reflective.

 

More pics

 

and more pics.

 

dude you realize I hate you for posting those pix.....

Makes me even more pi$$ed off that ANOTHER member gets that platinum tint and Im stuck with my charcoal reflective....

Looks great dude









but it'd look better on my car...

 

How much did this run you? I have a 2K2 Maj Blue as well, and I've always wanted this kind of tint. Mine are still stock.

 

$215 with a Lifetime warranty

 

looks better on my car...lol

 

that's an old wives tale... there is no problem tinting a sunroof.

and to whomever mentioned the laws about tinting the roof... there are none. There's a piece of cardboard you can use to cover it and that doesn't break any laws, so making it darker shouldn't worry any law enforcement people

 

You were my inspiration for the Llumar Platinum Plus

 

SWEEEEETTT!!! i feel special now...
glad to help... looks good!

 

is this particular brand of tint available at any auto glass/tint shop? I think it looks nasty and would really like it on my black 03SE.

 

alot of shops carry it in TN....
who knows about the rest of the country

 

That would be perfect on my sterling mist

 

Tint looks good. I have the same tint. Mine is the 28%. What is yours?

 

40%

I wanted to stay legal. With the factory tint (70% or whatever it is), it brings the total to 34.6 or 34.7%. I wanted a reflective tint because the flat black at 35% would have looked ghey.

 

i got my windows tinted about 4 days ago. i went with 17 percent all the way around. well the back window, where all those small dots are on the upper part of the window. will the tint just settle into those spots or will it look like its coming off and or not flat on the window when you look at it from the outside. did i just get a bad job?

 

My roof is 5%

 

My freakin old 99 Sentra SE-L had a tinted sunroof wtf was nissan thinking not tinting the sunroof on the flagship

 

I have regular black tint on my windows. Would getting mirror tint on the moonroof look good? or should i get black tint?

 

Yeah is a way for em to get another 40 bucks out of u....sun roof tint should be included with the paid tint job! I just assumed it was included when I got my 03...was on my 94 withoutn asking

 

It's sounds like you got a bad job. They should have cut off the tint where the small dots at the top begin, that's how it is done on my I30 and it looks great. When I got the tint done on my Altima the did when over the little dots and now it is peeling at the top after a little over a year. Luckily I have a lifetime warranty on the Altima 2.5S so I going to take it back, but now I'm worried about them pulling the tint and messing up my antenna and rear defrost.

 

For some reason I can't see pics

BUT - I had 35% Platinum Plus put on my black I35 on Tuesday, so I know what it looks like

I love it.

EDIT: I had mine done where 2k2PhatMax had his done, and they cut the tint off at the dots and place black vinyl over them. It looks good.

 

I just got Llumar yesterday as well. Got the asunroof tinted. Looks great.

 

5% all around and a 20% on the windshield, i wanted to do the sunroof but guy told me "in 20 years of tinting, i have never did a sunroof nor have I did a job as dark as yours", i told him he needs more experiences.

 

Mine is tinted.

 

old threads brought back to life

that said, 5% on the roof for me. not a shade lighter.
