looking to get a tint job on a new 06 rally red mr... i was wondering what type of tint would look good on it?

i couldnt find many ppl with tint jobs that have pics posted on a rally red evo...

so i was wondering if anybody have seen any in person...

i know in my area, theres limo black, titanium, and quantum tint... with quantum being mirror like.

im looking to do all the windows... including front windshield. of course that would be 50%, while the rest would be... somewhere 40-35? i dont want it too dark... im just getting it to reflect heat.

i had a older car that a did a quantum tint all around and it helps keep the interior cool...

any opinions/ideas would be appreciated.

thanks!

I like platinum tint on red and blue cars. But to me, platnium is what we call mirror like. I don't know what you mean by quantum.

I would go with limo black if I were you!....I have 20% on mine, I didn't want to go to dark and get a ticket.

platnium would be the same as quantum...

hm thx for the pics evoryder... red and limo black looks good but how well does it keep the heat out?

ne body with mirror tints and red?

btw, i live in southern cali, so.. cops might pose a problem... especially when im already in a red car...

I dont have a pic as of yet, but I did mine with that quantum style. I am not big on real dark tint. Nor did I want a pure reflective tint. I got the 35%. This has a light tint with slight reflection. Very clean. My car is going into the shop for paint work on a kit this weekend. So I will hopefully have pics in a couple weeks. Black tint looks good too, but too dark for my liking.

on a red car, i would go black. i think it helps accentuate the red.

how dark you wanna go all depends on how your local cops feel about tint though.

i would appreciate it if u can post some of ur car pics with ur new tint... that would be great!

yea i kno... cops are ok if u drive "normal" cars.... but in a red evo.... i'd prob have to be more careful...

Please don't do 35% all around...It's too visible on a sunny day. (Mine was tinted professionally 35% all around)

Do 20%.

it's great on heat...turn the ac on and the car is cool in a minute or so....interior temp doesn't get too hot either...even living in miami...only downside to limo's...parking at night in reverse...can't see too well out the side mirrors...but the car looks pimp as hell and u can stare at people and they can't see u lol

IMHO Rally Red looks like a rally car, and should therefore have rally style tint, IE as mirror-like as possible to reflect the sun. I wanted to get really reflective tint but it's illegal in Oregon. I got the most reflective I could legally get, but it only looks really reflective when it's a somewhat bright day with big white billowy clouds in front of the sun. Otherwise, it just looks kind of tinted and a little reflective. If I had my choice, I would go 0% mirror tint all around with the same on the top of the windshield. Just please don't get different percentages between your front and rear doors. That looks awful on a 4 door car.

i say 35% all around!!!! Heat doesnt hit you as hard and cops wont be on your ****.. and it looks berrry CLEAN on EVO'S
