I got my windows tinted yesterday. Here are some pics. I got 35% tint on the sides and 20% in the rear. Sorry about the poor photo quality in the afters; it was dusk and I used what little natural light was left.

After looking at the pics several times, it's almost like looking at two different cars. Part of it may be lighting. From inside the car, it isn't that different except for the dark back window.

I'm 6'-2", and no, I'm not standing on anything. I think it's the camera; it's a fairly cheap Kodak digicam; I think it has a fairly wide angle lense which accentuates the height, I think.

The car really looks nice. I just love having tinted windows on all my cars. It's generally the very first thing I do to them. You did the same as I, 35/20 ... it's a good combination. Happy Birthday!

The 35/20 is a practical combo, not too dark so you can see at night, but on your car 20/20 would look sick. i've had 10% all around on my old Jetta and it sucked, couldnt see a thing. it definately looks alot better than stock... good choice!

just did 35/20 on my sedan.. i love the look and i think 35/20 is a good choice. and i can still see out my rear but dont need to flip my rear view mirror at night, so i can see clearer at night then without the tink.. however im in pa, so i could still technically get a sitation for 20, but only if its night time and the cop cant see in.. we have one of those stupid "if you cant see in" laws.. ah :P ill just kick on the intirior lights.. then you can see in great!

It looks good! Same tint as mine. I also live in North Texas and if you just went through the summer with no tint you quickly regret it!

I'm more of a 35/35 or 20/20 fan myself, but it looks ok in the pictures.

I have 35/20 on all of my cars, and I wouldn't change it for anything. On our 06 Sonata, we got 35/20 in a dark black color. The car is a dark silver/grey, so it looks awesome. Nice job man, and BTW, what the heck took you so long to tint that car? Especially living in Texas. J/K man, it looks great.

Priorities. I've been wanting to do it for a while, but we had to take care of other things first. I got a kid in college and bills to pay and stuff.

Also, if I spend too much money on the car, the wife starts in on that $2000 sewing machine she wants, so I have to do these things in little bits....
