My buddy has a g35 and first time i saw his car i told him you need a tint bad (his car is black). Then he told me he had 35% and i was like what!? becuase it looked like he had no tint.. So thats why i thought 50% woudnt even be noticable.. Even with my 20% people can see me and i can see perfectly clear as well...

20% with black interior and the windows rolled up looks pretty good man. im very happy with it. yeah, i can see out plain as day during daylight but its still hard to see in. cops cant tell im not wearing my seat belt. thats dark enough for me. and at night you dont really have to roll the window down to use the mirror but it does make a big difference. 20% is definately the way to go...even if it is illegal.

here are some pics of my 20% tint.

20% all the way around. The only downfall is when it gets icy out then it makes it hard to see.

here mine. 56% or whatever you were gonna rock is waaaaaay light man. Ultimately, get what YOU want since its your car. I went with 5% all around... minus the windsheild of course.

I love 50% tint. I've done it on just about all my cars and it looks real classy. I never have cops pull me over either...

Someone with an Evo/lancer post pix of the 50% tint (two people have posted so far in this thread), I'd love to see it.

Same, just got it done and loving it. Yes its illegal, and yes I understand the law. But personally I disagree with it and the penalty is not severe enough to deter me from doing it.

If I get pulled over, I will probably complain and be pissed that the officer is writing me a ticket for tinted windows instead of finding the ******* that stole my previous evo. But hey, what can ya do?
