Need some pictures of window tiniting

One of the first things I'm going to do to the car (ETA 4/28) is to tint the windows. Anyone care to post pictures of thier cars with tinting and the % (is that correct ?) that they have on the side and back. I had tinting on my 05 GT and my 06 Vet, but for the life of me, I can't remember any numbers with them. My color is Race Red, hoping someone out there has a picture of it tinted.

the cars look great with the tint. i guess I'm going to need to go the stop and see the difference in person.
I'll let you know what I end up with.
Love that Boss. If they only made a convertible model. Maybe the "Boss 301" model.

5% is beautiful until you get pulled over. From personal experience, those tickets aren't cheap.

That is the best thing you can do. Pictures don't tell the whole story. With the right lighting and angle, I can make 35% look like 5% on a forum.

Not sure what the percentage is. Darkest they had in the back and one shade lighter on the doors.

^agree!!!
I did 5% on mine and it's great. Cops don't mess with me unless I'm doing something stupid to begin with. I would think it's not worth the time for just a tint ticket.

I guess it depends on where you live. Here in GA, the ticket can be upto $1000, which is more than just about any moving violation. So some counties love to hand out tint tickets.

I have never been in a state where cops are so lonely as they are in Georgia. I assume they are lonely because every time I see them they have someone pulled over and are having a nice chat with them.

Here in Virginia, the darkest the tint + window can be is 50% (light transmissibility) even with and forward of the driver, and no darker than 30% or 35% aft of the driver. It beats what they used to allow which was NOTHING.

I plan to get my '12 coupe's windows tinted ASAP after I get the car, to the above limits. Didn't bother on my white 'vert. It seemed (and would have been) unnecessary on that car, for some reason. I figured if the top & windows are down most of the time the sun is up, what's the use?
