opinions? please express...

also if anyone has pics of max with mirror tint please share

 

i like mine

i went with really light mirror tint

it reflects the sun better(cars gets less h0t) and isnt dakr at all when driving at night

it also depends what color car you have, as mirrored tint can look ricey on specific colors

 

I would check local laws before applying mirror tints. I know in my state, cops hate cars with mirror tint. They make people remove these tints more than the other tints. I personally, am not a fan of mirror tints. I like more of the darker shades like 20% and darker. Me, too, mirror tints look too "ricey" on a car.

 

what color is your car?

 

I like mirror tint, ricey or not. it keeps most people from seeing my road rage

 

Lighter colors look better with mirror tints.

On darker colors mirror tints sort of conflict with the whole dark appeal.

If your car is light colored get some light mirrored tints if you'd like and put the tint stickers on the windows and keep the papers so you dont get ****.

*edit......see how ricey and conflicting this integra looks with mirror tints



versus this clean looking lighter colored millenia(i think)

 

I vote for black tint. Mirror tint looks nasty.

 

my max came with platinum tint, its not as shiny as mirror, and I think it looks pretty good, other than that, I like black.

 

yup plantinum is the way to go, i see way better at night cause it is not SUPER dark, but it give enough coverage during the day and changes how much you can see inside at different angels...i like it ...other than that black for sure...none of the REALLY mirror like stuff, not good for you or cops eyes...

 

KV3 = grey lustre metalic... u should no that

i like mirror because
1. it reflects sunlight back as oppose to just blocking it
2. u dont lose visibility at night
3. following the same idea as #1 should help reflect blinding headlights from outside

i agree too strong a mirror tint could look bad on dark cars. i find it interesting how Lexus suvs r the only cars i c stock mirror tinting on... everyone else (suvs and vans) all have black tint.

very interested in "platinum" now... How is it different from mirror?

 

http://maxima.crimsonshift.com/, hit the link for tint. dark cars definetely look best with black film, and silver/gray are awsome with mirror or semi-reflective film.

 

Not a huge fan of mirror tint. And, like people have said, it attracts cops like a bad accident. I went with Platinum Plus. It's reflective like mirror, but you can still see through it.

 

I think the mirror tint just looks gawdy

 

Mirror tint is ricey and will attract attention from the authorities. Black is classy. Llumar FTW!

 

IMO, black tint all the way; makes the car look classy.

Mirror tint is rice

 

That platinum tint is interesting as well-- anyone have some facts on that?

 

I thought mirror tint was an early 90's fad?

 

It's Llumar Platinum Plus on my '00. I like it because of the reflectivity (semi-metallic film), as this rejects more heat than standard films do. Llumar comparison page. My film is the PP18 here.

I'll definitely second this!

 

I was going to go with the black but I decided not to.. I think the tint i put on looks nice on my car..IMO.. If i had a black car i would have definitely put on dark (black) tint..

 

Black tint on darker color cars look much better. If you had a light color car you could go with the mirror tint.

 

I have a Pearl White Max with a blond cloth interior and this is what my tint setup is like...
Originally 35% Platinum tint all around except the front windshield...
This looked nicer when the temperature inside the car dropped as these tints look more solid and its almost impossible to see the inside unless you walk up to the car and look inside.
After two years with the above setup I decided to make them darker, so I had 50% black tints put on the front windows and 35% black on the back windows on top of the original 35% platinum tints... I love this setup!
The back windows are really dark now! The front windows are a lil darker than the original 35%'s. If you wanna see pics PM me with ur email...

If you have a dark interior you wont have to get dark tints to get that dark look!
I wish I could have 5% all around! but nah.. not worth the trouble...

 

have a light interior
value functionality more than looks in this case
llumar platinum plus would be ideal
only considering 35% all around including sunroof, no lighter no darker

 

20% Platinum tint, FTW! only looks good on silver and some cream/white colors... other than that, looks horrible IMO. I would still love to see some nice 15% black tint on my car someday tho...

 

mirror = gay.

somewhat refelctive varies with car color..

/thread

 

On my white max the black with the chrome rims look real nice...i also think that it makes the car look classy

 

ressling:

Damn, that Max looks good! And slightly familiar, somehow...

 

Definitely a black tint... Not fond of the mirror tints... Black all the way.

 

mirror tint is for ghetto jigs...if you fall in that category then go ahead & get it....if not, then do the normally choosen & more tasteful, black tint.

 

guess that would make the RX330 a ghetto jigg...

the fact that its not "normally chosen" makes it more appealing 2 me

but clearly dark tint is the overwhelming fav - as expected

 

i too like the platinum idea...platinum or black should be the best choice being that alot of states see it as illegal

 

agree, black tint looks better imo.

 

on platinum tints. I have a similar car color as yours here is a picture in the day time. My tints are 35% though

 

Mirror tint looks good on a silver or gold colored car. Black on everything else.

 

Dark gets my vote....I cant stand being blinded by someones mirror tint

 

ope2k4 that looks nice and tasteful...

 

Thanks.

To add another comment, platinum tints look a little lighter in the daytime so it helps reduce cop's attention
