Now that I have somewhat of a stable build for my SHO, I'm tinting the windows. I'd love to see different pictures with the tint % and maker of the tint. Wisconsin tint laws are a little more strict, but I'd be willing to go"barely illegal".

My main concern is that i want the tint to look black. I see some tint colors that fade to this blue-ish/black tint color. I'd be willing to pay more  $$ for quality.

Anyone have tints in michigan?

I do.  35% all around.  It was done when I bought the car so who knows what brand.  Who ever did it sucked though and there are a few small bubbles in it.  I would have made them redo it if it was me.  I will post a pic after work.

20% all around. Tint: 3m Crystalline.



Mint and sold. That looks amazing.
Thanks, just make sure you use an experienced tint guy. These cars are a pain since the glass is buried behind plastic.

Technically I have a prescription for it so they can't write me a ticket. All my cars have been tinted and when I was younger I would do 5% all around. Back when I was a bar fly I got stopped for it a lot which was a nice way to stop me from attempting to drink and drive. Now that I go 35% and I'm not out cruising around at prime DUI time I haven't been pulled over for it in 8 years now.
