Im deciding whether to get 35% or 20%

Show me what you got.

Right now I am set on 35%

if you autox/track don't tint

if you autox/track don't tint

I second that one. My 325 had double limo tint on the back 3 windows and 20% on the sides. I did one auto-x and stripped it all off.

sides. I did one auto-x and stripped it all off.

How does that happen??

I'll throw some up soon, just had it done today. I'm kind of regretting it at the moment. Asked for 30%, they did 20%. At least it was done exceptionally well. Here's a pic of the back for now, didn't take any pictures with the rear sides installed..

I auto-x and gonna start tracking my dd. Eventually I will have a track car.. but I want my interior and me not to get ate up by the sun.

RAXE, that does look like 35 IMO

I mean after the auto-x I took it off :)

That seems excessive, even just to drive on the road, esp. at night.
unless you lived on mercury...

Brodee, how come? I don't see how the rear side and rear windshield would be an issue as far as visibility..

I've considered tint on mine, no a/c + black paint = sweatbox

I THINK I have 35% - it looks like 50% though. But, it's supposedly 35%. If I did it again, I'd do 20% all around.

My tint has not imparied my autocrossing/track driving one bit. Actually, it makes it MUCH more comfortable to drive my car and get into it after it's been sitting in 115 F weather in direct sunlight the entire day. It doesn't burn me as bad as before. LOL

[MR 325]

I have 20% and I think it's perfect.

this is my old car... it had 5% all around. the picture has the sunroof wide open and you can kind of see the seats from the sun but they were pretty dark. and as for driving at night time you get used to them really quick. it also helps when those big ass trucks are behind you and those headlights are eye-level for us its not as blinding...

How would having tint on your rear windows impair autox or road course driving? Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't you be looking FORWARD when your driving on a race course? And I don't know about you but my windows are always down when I'm driving on the track, especially out here in AZ, unless I want to drive with my A/C on......

I guess you could argue you need to see when someone wants to pass, but even with limo tint you can see people behind you, day or night (unless theres a track somewhere that lets you drive at night, or for that matter at night without your headlights on?)

Tint is actually something functional, it serves an actual purpose, especially in the hotter climates. To me, saying you are anti-tint simply because its a ricer mod or DD/cruiser/show-car mod makes you no better than all those JDM fan-boys who where constantly telling me to "fishbowl that biatch" when I had my civic.

go 20% all around...dark enough but not too dark. i have limo all the way around in my jeep and parking at night sux
