To Tint, or not to Tint?

Man, I didn't expect this kind of response when I started this thread! I love this site!

In regards to the "ghetto thugs" argument: there is a substantial difference between putting 20% tint on a car to cut down on glare and heat, and 50+% to make it impossible to see into the car.

Just about everybody here in South Louisiana has LEGAL tint for the above mentioned reasons. The ones with illegal tint are the ones the cops pick on.

And I plan on getting it done at a local tint shop. $149 for a two-door car and 100% legal.

Thanks everyone for helping me make up my mind. I didn't want to be the only fool tinting one of these old A-bodies.

That purple bad boy is gonna look great with tinted windows...also fyi tint is rated on percent of light filtered.....as in how much light gets through the tint.

35% is lighter than 20% which is lighter than 5% which is limo tint.

Most cars have 20-35%. Usually 20% on back and rear windows and 35% on the front side windows. That is legal in most states. I will mention that it does not look as good when you mix tint so go 35% all the way or 20% all the way.

Good luck.
