Cool 3m Color Stable 35% DARK Tint All around

I just went to this Tint shop and got this done last Thursday. I am kind of upset because some bubbles/ air scratch marks came onto the passenger door. I am getting it fixed this Tuesday. But untill then, what do you think?










I am having second thoughts that its not dark enough, but on the other hand I dont want to get in trouble with the 5/0 You know? So Im not sure, please let me know what you think

Looks good, I have 25% on the front doors and 15% on the rest of my sedan, it's dark as hell but isn't too hard to see out of. I considered going 15% front windows and 5% rest, but decided to stay legal like you did.

I understand, I just am 17. I worked hard as heck to get this tint you know. It has a few bubbles but It gets to be fixed for free because of the guarantee. I cannot afford to take them off if I get a ticket, thats why I stuck with this you know!

Looks classy.

Anything darker would look make it look like you're a drug dealer.

Looks good. I've got an ASM EX w/32% all around. You've got to lose the front tag and pinstripe!

Nothing like working hard for your money. Good job on the decision to stay legal, would be upsetting if you had to peel it off because some cop noticed.

There will always be a bubble here and there, would take several trips to the tent shop to finally get a car with no bubbles. Ignore the tiny ones and take the tint in for the ones that really bug you.

That Damn Pinstripe was 400 Bucks extra lol. The damn dealer added it on to the already 22k MSRP price... Well I think its kind of classy to have a stripe with the tag in front no? Its not the pinstripe with the the Honda log in the middle of the doors, it just goes straight through.

Are you really? Do you change the tints or just leave them on? Does insurance raise you're price for this lol?

Yeah tell me about it, its nice to have all the money in you're hand at once, but then its like "Oh man What did I do." lol.. Thanks! Yeah it seems like the Driver's Side is perfect, and just the Passenger Window is messed up. I hope one more trip to the shop and it will be flawless! Thank G-d for the Warranty It helps a whole lot!


But untill then I'll just have to wait and see you know.
