Should I tint my windows?
Alright... i am basically done with my body mods. Ive got a Victory Red SS/SC with black accents. Ive got red eyelids, black evo mod, black center bar/upper grills, black reverse evo mod, and blacked out tails/side markers. Now i'm contemplating getting my windows tinted. I did it on my Camaro and i liked it, but i didn't go dark enough. So if i did it, i would go professional again, and i'm either wrapping it in 5% or nothing. Opinions?
Victory Red SS/SC with tinted windows pics would be nice.

i live in jersey and would have every window tinted 5% if I could. You're basically giving the cops one more reason to pull you over. If I didn't work second shift causing me to drive home through heavily patroled areas at peak hoodrat hours i would definitely tint all my windows.

Well i'm not too worried about the cops. I has 20% in the back and 35% on the fronts on my Camaro and never had a cop say a thing, even being stopped over 15 times (they profiled me for my paint job 
). So i guess i'd consider wrapping 20% all around, but still not sure if i should do it at all :P Pics?

I went 20% all around and it can get real dark at night. Personally, I definitely wouldn't go any lower than 20%. But it looks great and I can still see enough to function without feeling dangerous.

Well besides the decision to go 20% or 5%, you've made me decide to tint them
Ill probably just their opinion when i get there and decide on the spot. Thanks

Like i said I was nervous about it getting dark at night, and ya it is with limo on the back, but man the car looks sooo sexy, plus with a spoiler on the back of our cars you cant see much anyways.

Thanks for your input, bro. But i already posted about 3-4 posts above you that i was. I'm not doing some backyard tint job and wanted to get some input before i spent $175 on a professional job. That alright with you?
