Prices vary from $200 to $400 for all windows, depends on where you live and how good a rep the tinter has. I paid $240
% is a personal preference thing, but I like 35% on cars other than black, white & silver, this is so the tint accents the color instead of visa versa.

I liked 35% too.
On my car I tint 35% on both sides and 20% on rear windows. See if you liked.

Never bother me or any of my passengers.
Cost - $200. Probably not THE BEST film, but I liked. Tint shop was recommended by my salesperson.
Tint and mud flaps is only two mod that I did to my car.

I got 20% all around on AW. Not too dark, but definitely tinted. Love it. I think it was around $200.

eshtog · 01-14-2007, 01:44 PM

20% all around, I got carbon 18% which is sligtly darker. It looks sick!

AW= Alpine White

Anywhere from 35%-25% on the tint looks great!

anuna · 01-14-2007, 02:29 PM

what a nice car thanks a lot guys=)
really appriciated
now my homework is make a decision between 20% to 35%
and final question is
what do you guys prefer more?
all the same % tint or slightly different % of tint let say 35% for front and %20 % for rear
once again thank you=)

teknochild · 01-14-2007, 02:38 PM

all the same tint personally

havent seen a pic of staggered tint but it does work on some cars

what the limit in wisconsin? lol i bet it higher than 35% so might aswell go to 20% since your already breaking the laws

I'm in the western New York State area and we don't see the sun. I'm not going to tint my E92 coupe when it arrives just in case it does appear. I wouldn't want to miss it.

ironic · 01-14-2007, 03:06 PM

///M3NACE · 01-14-2007, 03:09 PM

no 35% and 20% are both against the law in your state by a pretty wide margin

its something like 28% here in florida (the lower the number the darker the tint)

so if it was me i would get the 20% because if a cops going to ticket you w/ 50% being the legal hes probably going to do it regardless if you have 20 or 35%
