Reflective-Smoke tint

FYI - 35% front and %20 back.

Thanks guys!

I got a good deal because of my fiance's brother. Paid around $250. They have to do it in two steps. First the reflective then smoke. I wanted the mirror tint but its' illegal in Ontario and the shops won't do it anymore.

I live in Orleans so chances are you probably saw me taking the long way back from work. I drive all over the place. Any excuse to drive

Great tint! I like it!

I have a blue P5, I wanna tint my windows but I don't know if I tint it blue or black.

What do u think?

Frank


By the way, is there any product that can tint a bulb light (or platic)? Or the mirror? I wanna tint my top light inside my car to give it a blue tint.

Nightowl has a blue P5 and his tint has blue in it.. Looks pretty sweet!

If you're in the Ottawa region, maybe you should come Saturday and check it out

That is a beautiful tint job. Even though the back is more tinted than the front, you can hardly tell because of the reflection. Nice job!

If you just want blue light, get a blue bulb. Should be easy to find at almost any auto parts store.

I just got my silver P5 tinted with the reflective tint. I was initially thinking about getting the limo tint, but the guy had a sample pane of glass that he put up to my window, which gave me a reasonable idea of how it would look. He said the silver cars look good with the reflective tint. I went with it, and love it. Sorry, no pics just yet.

4u2zoom,
I'm curious why you ended up tinting heavier up front? Was it legal reasons? If so, I'm confused, because in CA you can only have the front tinted slightly. Mine cost about the same as yours, btw.

i usually don't like that reflective tint, but it actually looks good on your car.

wheels_sd: i actually got pulled over in san diego before, and the cop gave me a ticket because he said that in cali, you're not supposed to have the front windows tinted AT ALL. he gave me a ticket for it, but i didn't take it off. i just had it signed off by a family friend who's a cop. i think that if the tint is fairly light, the cops won't hassle you over it, even though you're not "supposed" to have it on the front windows.

Loving the tints man, I too have a silver car and was wondering if I should just go with the plain black, but that looks too sweet to pass by.
