What percent tint for a Polished Titanium Maxima?

What kind of tint looks best on this color? Check sig. What is the best brand also? I heard llumar was good. So how dark would look nice? Also, how much for tint all around including sunroof?

I've got the same color, so I'm interested in the answer. I don't want to go too dark.

35% mirror tint would be the best match imo

Mirror Tint Will only get you stopped.. So it would be better to take your chances with just a good black or refective tint.

Go with legal % for your state, and make shure you get reflective metalic film, it's not like a true mirrow, but it looks nicer that the regular.

I've got a blk/blk Max with a 20% on the rear window and 35% on the side windows. (blk tints, not mirror) It looks great! Legally in Illinois we can't have tints on the driver & passenger front windows. (I've had them on my maximas for 6 years now with minimal probs - knock on wood) The 35% is just enough to make it look sleek, yet not enough where the cops are gunning for you. Just stay away from the mirror tint.
I've got a place that does the 5 windows for $250 and will charge you maybe another $25 to do the sunroof. This guy does all the tinting for the Kanuz BMW & Mercedes dealer. If you live up in the north burbs, I'll give you the info.

Whatever you do, make sure it's not cop attractive

Go with 35% tint. I've got that, and have gotten a bunch of compliments.

Yeah, I think it would be good with 35%. Looks clean.

But do you think no tint would look good? Many VWs and german cars go without tint and keep that clean look.

Tint will probably make your car look better.

I have 20% Titanium Llumar on my Sheer Silver 03. Personally I love it! I like the glossy look it has. Just remember the darker you the more difficult it is to back up at a night.
