    Tinted e30 picture request. From 35%-60%

    I have searched and literally went through every thread, but im still undecided. Please post any pictures of your car with tints from 35%+

    It's hard to decide on e30's for some reason.

    Thanks.

        If you want a clean look, especially on alpine, I'd suggest going with a ceramic tint. It may be more expensive but well worth it in my opinion.

        Here's 3M crystalline 60 on my front windows,


        You'd be surprised at how well it handles heat rejection for being so damn light.

          This thread interests me as well. I'm removing my tint and need some ideas on what to retint it with. But from the looks of it, most of you guys don't have legal tint.

                  Keep in mind that glass itself blocks sunlight. I just got a ticket for my 20% but the meter read 4. Yeah, 4%. On a bright, sunny day.

                  Legal in SC is 35% but was told they issue warnings up to 27%

                    Not sure what amount it is. But I like it was on the car when I bought it. Not too dark.

                      thanks for the help.

                      State of California allows no tint lower than 70% on front windows and no tint on the windshield. I probably got around ten tickets having on 5%s for about 3 years. From what i can see in the pictures, it looks like i'll be doing something slightly lighter than 50%.

                      I'm really curious to what tint that red m3 has.



                      keep them coming please.

                          What ever the limit in VA/MD was. The previous owner had it tinted. Good job because it's been on there with no bubbles or crap for 4 years.

                          Thinking it's less than 30%.

                            I have a ton of e30 pictures with tint, but im not sure about the darkness, that's why i need the owners to post up with numbers.

                            Post!

                              The tint on mine is 35% all around. I like it, its the darkest we can legally have in Oregon on a non SUV/Wagon. Looks darker than it really is since everything on and in the car is black.
