it makes it darker, but the camera just compensates, so it's really hard to tell from the pictures

yeah, i heard about it having to set for a few days, so it won't bubble. i also heard that it's not wise getting it done in the cold weather since it won't set right, but i don't know, never tinted anything. but i do have a heated garage

Looks a lot better with the tint . I've seen a bunch of lancers w/o tint and they just don't look right.

What % is that? Mine is 5% and got it done for $100. Cops around here are great and don't care about dumb stuff like car mods

i was also looking at getting 20% tint. seems about right, not too dark, not too light. not sure if people get tickets here for tints at 20% but i had a friend with a 98 trans am, he has 5% all over except windshield and he got all kinds of warning but no tickets yet.

also, if anyone has pics or links to 20% tint on lancer could you show them or pm me? thanks
