What a difference window tint makes!

[RamThis]

The original owner did not tint the windows in this car, and unfortunately the back seat paid the price since all the fuzz became sun-bleached, and kinda looked crappy through those blaringly clear windows (plus everyone could see when you were picking your nose!!)

So, I got the windows tinted. Not real dark, but just enough. Saaaweeet!! Completely changed the look of the old car!!

:rockon: yeah i wasnt all that excited bout my 1st 3gee when i got it.. then i decided to get it tinted. once i did it was like a whole new car, and iw as hooked lol

when i got my new one it was the first mod i did :D the car looks so much better with it. yours looks real nice :)

cheeseburger dude tint it asap trust me you'll be glad you did hehe not only does it look sick it also cools down the car and gives you privacy to boot

[Cheeseburger]

my cheeseburger mobile has tinted windows. limo in the back and 35% dark in the front i think. but im not sure yet

[frantik]

damn ur wheels are so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so clean!!!!!!! the hubcaps are just OMG!!! :eek5: holy shit i cant get over how clean a 17 year old car is!!!!! OMG!!

[MessyHonda]

looks nice... how dark did you go...the owner had a garage to put it at night so the rear seats are not bad...but now that i have it i need to get some protection since my dx seats are mest up. i was going to get mine done but the guy left to mexico and he wont be back till next month...he works at a stereo and alarm place and he does the window tint...so i told him if he can do it and he said yeah....time for a house call.

I got the wheel covers off of eBay for just at $50 shipped to my door, brand new.

The tires are Toyo Spectrums, I just put them on a few months ago. GREAT tire, of course, I love most any Toyo tire.

Thanks for the props guys!

what % is the tint im going to pick up my laurel blue 3g today and i was thinking about doing 20 percent all around

[RamThis]

looks nice... how dark did you go....

I think it was 30 or 35% all around. I just pointed to a car they had just done and said I want that shade there. They had the whole car done in just over thirty minutes. Of course, I watched them do the whole thing so now I know how to do tinting lol. I think I may order some film and do my own tint on the Integra :)

[ghettogeddy]

is there a way u can find out for sure i like the shade u got there it goes with the color of the car

[frantik]

there's not a whole lot of different between 30 and 35 mang :D

if the shop will let you get multiple shades i'd get something a lil darker than 30 on the rear window but 30 is great for the back rollups

[ghettogeddy]

well as we all no my lx is 5% but i dont think i wanna go that dark maybe 25 or 30%

[frantik]

hehe 5% is cool imo just not on the front rollups cause it's a big cop magnet.

i'd consider 5% on the rear glass only if i had to redo mine just cause my interior is so light you can see it even thru the 15. but i like to fade it up toward the front as opposed to having all the windows the same darkness.. 20-30 is good for the side rears

[ghettogeddy]

ya i think im gona do 20 all around it think it should look fine

[2drSE-i]

i wish my ac worked better. 5% tint, so u cant see up in my window :D

i roll with the windows down, but 5% is badass.

[RamThis]

Reciept says 30% all around. I woulda done 15% on the rear and side rears but dont think the wife would have liked it at night (hard to see when backing up).

[ghettogeddy]

tell me about it a can just barely see out the back of mine so i think 20 will be good for my girlfriend

[TdotWarrior]

damn the color of the car and the tint go nicely together

[ghettogeddy]

ya thats y i cant wait to get the tint on its gona look awsome

[MessyHonda]

ya thats y i cant wait to get the tint on its gona look awsome

dude we should get our cars tinted....im cheap tho...i cant afford 180 on tint... but yeah like i said my friend does tint but he is in mex right now...il find out when he comes back.

[ghettogeddy]

sounds good id love to save some money on tint 180 was a little steep for me to but i really wanted it done so i went for it but ya let me know how much and if he wants to come out here to do it then we can have a mini photo shot with my 2 3rd gen and yours

[frantik]

saving money with tint usually means losing quality.. you can go for the $99 special but you'll end up with purple windows and air bubbles after a year or two of summer sun :\ quality tint film isn't cheap and isn't available in retail stores. if you want someting that is warranteed against discoloration or delamination you gotta drop the extra change. Admittedly I took it to probably the most expensive place in the bay but just my back window was 150 lol

[ghettogeddy]

ya that was expensive i paid 170 for all 7 about 25 a window
