    I've gone to the dark side.

    20% on the rear windshield, and 2 rear non-popout sides.
    35% on the front 2 side windows.

    Got it all done OUT of the car, so there are no visible razor lines. Ty Smith of Darkside Window Tinting down in Eugene did the work for me. Top notch shit, and happy to work with me on my somewhat odd request.

      Car is filthy as its been raining for a week... but here is the rear 3 installed (20%)



      I'm going to let the front 2 dry a bit more as they need to see some heavy handling to be put in unlike the rear 3.

      Front 2 are 35%, the newer style window with the 2 aluminum slide rails. I will be switching to the new style scissors regulator. Its faster, smoother, and more quiet :)

          Getting ready for a desert climate I see. When are you moving down there officially?

          Good stuff. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay?

            Jordan, i switched to the new style motors too.

            Much better style, and definately smoother! :D

            Looks nice!

              Youre going to need all the tint you can get in Texas. 8)

                Is the rear windsheidl THAT easy to remove?

                I should remove all my windows too, that would be a lot better to have it tinted. That, and I don't have to worry about them crawling around inside my car.

                  It takes me about 30 mins or less to uninstall and install a rear windshield. I wouldn't suggest doing it unless you know what you are doing.

                      I am normally not big on tint on E30's, but it looks good on your car.

                        any idea of the brand of tint used? (3M, ect). I want to get 35% all around on my car soon.

                            Oh ya, that looks good. I would have gone with the same darkness all around [and I did, lol] but that's just me

                              Looks better without.

                              Maybe pictures need to be a on a sunnier day.
