Do you think window tinting ruins the look or enhances it?
I've been contemplating getting my tint on.
I've been contemplating getting my tint on.
I agree. I actually had my back window removed from the car so It would be a 1 piece tint job.Since you asked, here's my :twocents:
Good tint can make the 5th gen look really sharp, and especially on a custom or modified car it is really a necessity. However, a bad tint job can make the car look 10x worse. So, when you get your tint done, find a well-known shop in your area and pay extra for the long life tint that takes longer to turn purple.
I got my tint done 10 years ago with the long life stuff, and it's just starting to turn now. Also, this may not be the case anymore, but when I was shopping for tint way back when, not all shops would do 1 piece on the rear window because it's more difficult with the curve.
Wow, that guy must be pretty good! It's very hard to get into the very tips of the rear window the way they curve to a point. I tint the windows on all my cars. My side windows are darker than the law permits on all my cars. I've been pulled over before without any issues. From my experience the cops will only get you for that if you are pulled over for something else 1st, and then you are a wise acre to the cop. At that point they will find anything not legal.the back window in my 87 is 1 piece & it's starting to bubble. Not bad for tint to last 20 years ! He did it in 1 piece with the help with a heat gun on low !! & took out the trim around back window !!
