Tints!

[JasonG150]

Hey guys, new to the forum actually. Tried looking through the discussions for window tint related stuff but didn't see anything, hopefully I didn't just miss it. Just bought a 2013 V6 premium (black) and I'm starting to look into some appearance modifications.

Curious to know where you guys have been to get tints done on your windows and what %? Looking forward to chatting with y'all.

Thanks Scott, seemed like a lot of users there were mentioning Audio Heaven with the Solar Guard

Pleasure Jason. Yes, I've heard good things about Audio Heaven. Never dealt with them myself though.

I've had Audio Heaven tint 3 cars now.
All 23 percent, all way round.

First 2 were done in 2010, still have the one car, and the other car was replaced last August. Both look/looked like the day they were done.
The other car was done in October, and no issues with the workmanship nor the darkness of the tint.

Okay awesome, good to hear from someones who's been there a few times. How was 23%? Any troubles getting pulled over? I'm thinking 35% to keep it simple.

I have 35% all -round and really wished I went a bit darker- kids are always complaining at the back that I need one of those pull shade things, but never been pulled over- I think Hugo on this forum went something like 28% and is very happy with it.

This is 20% on all windows with a 20% strip on the windshield. Pretty sure it isn't a true 20% because it seems lighter than my other mustang and has a green hue to it. Seems like it's of cheaper quality. I'd like to have it redone at a better shop one day. I'd like it a little bit darker.

the perceived tint level is heavily influenced by interior colour, sunroof and total window area.

On my last 2 trucks I paid the extra and had Summit Ford install front door tint to match the factory sides and rear, only a little lighter. Costs a bit more, but always matched perfectly. When I traded in my 04 with 330k on my 14 the tint still looked like new. Cost about $100, had it done during regular service/warranty/oil change visit.

I like it. I think I'll go that level when I redo mine.

And to hell what the kids think. Their opinion is irrelevant!

lol- yes,
but they are baking in there when sun in shining especially when we went to florida- even when parked 35% just doesn't do it- almost looks like no tint at all and hardly blocks any sun rays.
I always suggest going slightly darker than 35%( if you don't want it too dark i.e. night time driving) to save money from doing it again- money that can go towards other mods

here's another pic - it looks like the car has no tint at all when sun is shining- that's Ray's car behind
