I've seen plenty of tinted evo's but the lightest anyone has seems to be 35%...

I'm pretty much decided on 50% (all around), but would like to see if anyone has any pics or if anyone has gone that route at all.

The car feels a little naked since it's a 4 door and there is alot of window "real estate" so I think tint is necessary... BUT - I'd like to retain as much night-time visibility as possible and never having owned a car with tint I feel like 50% would the best choice. The interior is all black anyways.

Anyone have any pics of 50% on an evo? thank you in advance

 

im going 25% all around...

 

completely pointless post...

Alex, do you think 35 is too dark? 35% isn't really that bad I have 20% all around and I'll admit it's way too dark and at night I have to put my windows down to have full vision.

I would suggest 40-45% my friend has a wrx and he has 40% and it looks much better than stock but still retains vision

 

35% any less and the tint is almost pointless. You lose little night time visibilty with 35%

 

^ what he said i have 20 and its perfect, at first i had 5 and you couldnt see a dam thing at night.....but 20 is fine

 

I've driven several cars with 35% and while during the day I wasn't really bothered by it, at night I really couldn't adjust to not being able to identify cars as easily as I usually do... I'm the type of person that looks at the headlights/taillights of all cars so I can easily identify what is around me.. countless times i've had cops trail me and i've had to make very quick decisions based on the situation (cars around me, speed, location, etc) at the time.

I also don't want the tint to stand out very much, meaning - I would like for it to compliment the interior instead of hide it.. I would like for it to accentuate the overall styling of the car instead of drawing attention to the *darkness* of the windows.. I also don't plan on modding the exterior much (not yet at least) so I don't want it to look like someone bought a new car and slapped tint on it because it's the cool thing to do - you see so many bone-stock cars around here with limo tint and it just looks tacky.

That's why I made the thread - I think i've only seen 50% on porsche's, bmw's and ferrari's... I think it's going to look classy, but I guess I won't know for sure until I try.

 

If you try, please post picks. I live in maine and the law is 50% all around. I dont think ive ever seen 50% so if you do it id love to see pics. I was plannin to to 35% all around.

 

35 in the front...perfect its a classy tint, and visibility at nite is no problem....20% on the back just cuz i think it looks sharp that way

 

50% will probably look like your windows have dust on it.Preety pointless...I have 20% all around and a %15 strp accross my windshield.

 

I have had 5% on all my cars/trucks after high school. Illegal I know but really havent had any problems

 

IMO 50% is way too light and a waste of money. From a distance it looks slighty tinted and doesn't look tinted at all up close. I don't know if this is the look you're looking for but 35% is the next best thing. Keeps the sun out and

And as for driving at night with 35% tint...it must've been pitch dark outside because I don't have a problem finding out what cars are around

 

I had 50% on my m3 all the way around it looked very classy. I think dark tint is just ghetto and circa 1995....


But sorry I don't have any pics...

 

i think 25% would be the majority answer. i live in az and thats what i have and it suits me just fine

 

50% looks nice on darker cars....imo my tinter had 50% i would of got 50 but i had to settle for the 35%

 

I agree that 50% is too light. I did 20% for the front , 5% rear with a 5% strip on the windshield.
