Default Window Tinting

Ya i want to get my ride tinted up with somethin like that Limo tint or whatever i can get thats real dark that will still be legal but will make my car look nice. And i was wondering if anyone out there knew what the best kind of tint was for ur car and what it will do for ur car. Like there is this reflective tinting and non reflective and i was wonderin which yall prefer better. So far i think i like the dark black tint with a slight mirror reflection on it. I hear that this helps cool the inside of ur car when its super hot outside. Any tips, ideas, input or help would be greatly appreciated thanx.

I use Lumar film on my car. My tint doesn't really do anything much but blcok uv rays.

Yea, i think that would look nice on your Civic. Black body paint with dark black slightly mirror reflection tinted window goes pretty well with it.

After you got ur window all tinted up you should buy this special window cleaner for lumar film tint. Itz kinda like a windex but instead itz made for the film. plus it protect the film from gettin scratch. This should also make it last longer.

hey sup man !! just a few words and something to think about !! i take it its illegal to have tinit on ur front windows where u live ! but if ur going to tint them u might as well go with the darkest all the way around ! cause if u get pulled over from the cops they will give u a ticket anyways no matter if its the lightest or the darkest !! so u might as well go with the darkest and take ur chances !! thats what i did !! plus if u do get a ticket its only 10 bucks ! just take it off the front windows with a razor blade and some soapy water get ur ticket signed off and puyt the tint back on !! hope this helped ya !! sorry about the spelling hahaha
