Putting the windows up and down gets old, especially when you’re in a GM and they operate slower than PJB driving behind an elementary school bus. ---

I have 5o and 5, front and rear respectively. The 5 is really dark, and I would have gone darker on the fronts, but it was when my license was suspended… I thinks 35 or 30 all around would be perfect. ---

You know, now that I look at your car again… you dont have any, like chrome, window frames… so all black might look a bit funky. Cause you know the tint is never going to match the black of the paint… so maybe not tint it. ---

I dont rock a front plate either, no holes. I dont really WORRY about tint tickets, I cant get most of things taken care of. It’s just a nuisance really. ---

Ok check these out, the building in the background is bright, but this should be an accurate representation. I used a paint brush in darken mode and set the opacity accordingly. And doubled the darkness where you can see through both windows. The only issue I see is there is no window glare, it seems “flat”. 15% ![http://shift518.gom-host.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1733&stc=1&d=1260911425](http://shift518.gom-host.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1733&stc=1&d=1260911425) 35% ![http://shift518.gom-host.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1734&stc=1&d=1260911432](http://shift518.gom-host.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1734&stc=1&d=1260911432) No Tint ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/1flossedm3/Killerblackbird%20Shoot/3942042131_bcf3f6848b_o.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/1flossedm3/Killerblackbird%20Shoot/3942042131_bcf3f6848b_o.jpg) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/35-or-15-tint/249090.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/35-or-15-tint/249090.md?page=3)
