hey i want to tint a 2dr civic, but want to make sure to keep it within the limits of the law, does anyone know that and what would be safe so i dont get picked on by the cops?

 

Well it depends on where you live as far as the legal limit, as well as what the cops will tolerate. In most states 35% is the legal limit, and thats not really that dark. But in Memphis, where my family lives, I see people rolling around with 5% all around and the cops won't bother you unless you tick them off.

 

I think 35% is plenty enough

 

35% isn't like anything. The only thing it really helps with is UV rays entering the car, other then that it is easy enough to see through even at night. To me its hard to tell its even tinted.

 

First this is first. Where do you live?

 

35%- depends onthe angle that you look at... sometimes on my car its hard to tell if i have it tinted, but from certain angles you deffinitely can tell. Unfortunately for me I have problems seeing at night and sometimes i have to roll my windows down to see better.. but thats just me. i wish i could go darker though.. justa little bit.

 

im thinking going 20% would that give it a darker feel and make the car look better?

 

yes i have 20 percent tint in NY (look at my album) and it looks great, i went to a trusted tinting place in my area, and these people use high quality $80 tint film, and they include a lifetime warranty against bubbles, cracking, discoloration. so its great.

although in NY, 75% is the legal limit! that means your tint can only be 25% dark! rediculous.

 

limo all the way aorund haha

 

Mine says its 35%, its pretty hard to see in. im thinking the color has to do with it tho cuz mine reflects alot, sorta metallic. on my friends mazdaspeed, its 35% too but its easy to see through cuz it doesnt reflect much, its just black.
