        tint
        my black e30 had tint that had bubbled with age and gotten scratched, one of the first things I removed when I got the car, like it without

        my 91 318is ( now a parts car) has tint, and I like the contrast
        dont know what degree or percent, its mild and lighter then what was on my black one
        but I do like the contrasting look

          i like the look of no tint, but tint is so damn practical, especially down south. keeps the interior cooler so your a/c won't have to work as hard, and it'll extend the life of your interior.

          if you do tint, i say no darker than 35% or whatever the legal limit is where you live.
          pull: '02 F-250 7.3L 6SPD 4x4, Chipped, Straightpiped, BFG MTKM2.
          turn: empty stable. lame.

            Yea i wana go with no tint, but its way to hot down here. Its in the 90's on a daily basis and i dont have air conditioning (currently trying to fix). I bought the car with limo tints and a perfect interior.

            The best part of my car is the interior and even tho i have windshield sun reflectors for the front, i still dont want to risk it bakin.
            Then again, i have stock lights and cant see SHIT at night.

            What if i just take off the windshield tint. Has anyone seen that? Does that look retard?

              I have to run tint on my car. Not necessarily have to run it, but my eyes are sensitive to light.

                i think it looks fine as long as they're all the same. like 35% i hate it when people do the back limo and the rest not.

                  yea i think no tint in the front and limo tints everywhere else is going to look... weird?

                    50% all around including the windshield looks great on an Alpine IMO

                    any darker looks like shit on an e30, old school cars + dark tint = FAIL

                          I have 35% all around on my E30 and 20% on 15% (don't remember) on my E46 and I prefer the E46 one over the E30.
                          I prefer no tint, but here in Florida is inviting the sun to wreck your interior.

                              thanks man, i like no tint better tho, but to just retint the car i might as well leave the ones it has on. Unless theres a way to preserve the interior.

                                I think 35% is a really good amount of e30's. Obviously some cars can pull off darker and some cars look goofy with any tint but e30's can go either way, but in moderation. NEVER Limo tint an e30...
