pics of tint!

hey guys i've had my maxima for over a year already and i still hav'nt got tint! i've wanted them pretty bad for a while just never got around to doing it. i have a 98 sterling mist se and a few friends thought i should get the "executive" tint. it's a faintly goldish reflective tint that looks pretty different and clean. it's not that ghetto mirror though. i was wondering if anyone had any pics of this type of tint or any opinions on what to get with my max. thanks

I have a 99 Sterling mist, and got some "FormulaOne" Ultimate tint. Apparently it's supposed to look like "factory tint" than anything else. I like it. It is a bit light, but hey, I can't complain, it's tint. Better than nothing. And I didn't want something super dark, especially since VA laws are 50/35%.

Don't know if this will help any but I also have FormulaOne tint, but the place didn't show what percent it was so all I know is it's Dark in the back and Medium in the front..

i've got 20% on all windows and 35% on the front windshield, it gives a nice even tint from whatever angle you look at the car.

You'll never want to drive untinted again... with 35%, even at night there isn't much difference visability wise. i got the idea because my friend tinted his windows 35% and it was pretty easy to see out, so i put it on the front and no complaints. i wouldn't go much darker though, i have another friend who put 20% on the windshield....and that's a bit dark for my tastes

I don't have the stones to get tint that dark, or tint the windsheild, but if you guys can get away with it, hey, power to the people.

yeah it's true.. they ruled it "unconsitutional" since out of towners weren't able to be ticketed for tint... once they put it back into effect though, i gotta watch out because I'm sure they'll be looking to make examples out of people here...

My old 73 mustang Grande (I miss it so much! ) had two layers of 5% tint on all but the windows...lol we had to drive around with the windows down at high, we had fun backing up with it too.

Alittle of both worlds:LIMO/MIRROR tint (35% all around)
I think that it's alittle light for me. Since Tx, isn't really stringent on laws around here, I can probably get it without being hassled.
