Another window tint thread (with pictures)

[Budgetcon]

My current setup
Front windshield 55% Ceramic
Front sides 5% Ceramic
All rear windows factory, will be doing 5%

Picture of inside, different shades

Front windshield does give some privacy but not pitch black

Side view of 5% vs factory in sunlight

Here is a inside view of factory

Inside view of 5%



Takeaways, Ceramic is definitely the way to go.
5% on Front sides may be too dark for the wife at night, day is perfect.
55% is a safe tint on Front windshield, I don't notice it being tinted at night but if you want privacy you may want to go darker.

Have a good day! 👍

Thanks!! Honestly, she didn't even realize it was tinted. The way she found out was by wearing her polarized sun glasses and found a rainbow effect. The tint shop has 55-35-15 IIRC so 55 was the lightest shade.

I,m in Jersey, and we are not even legally allowed to do the front side windows, let alone the windshield......Unless you have some type of doctors note....

Did you notice any difference at all in how well you could see your HUD with the 55% windshield tint?

 

[hatsufi]

15% front door windows and sunroofs
35% middle, rear, and back
5% brow.

For me it made 0 difference. Sometimes can’t even tell the front windshield is tinted. Wife can’t tell either.

That looks like a Kansas or Nebraska town to me Nice ride! Ours is on order and will be identical.

Anybody know best tint for front to match factory rear?

 

[SRBLV]

I was thinking about 5% front and 15% rear all around. Not sure how it would match since rear windows have those dark privacy glass. Anybody have this?
