massdrewski Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Keep your eye out for me on the cape this summer. maybe. Im doing 32% all the way around on my....get this. 98LGT sedan with a WRX swap and yes...I will be rocking it out with the WR Blue. I can't wait to rock out the old school. I think the 32% will look sweet with the WR Blue. This is what I hope it will look like. And before... http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2055/127/16/1083715626/n1083715626_30219128_6400.jpg http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2182/127/16/1083715626/n1083715626_30245678_9647.jpg rocking out in the legacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow05gtRI Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I got 45% all around (combined with factory tint makes close to 35% i guess) in that group tint and I really like it. the car looks smoked rather than blacked out. my car is registered and inspected in RI and the limit is 70% all around, so it's going to be interesting come inspection time. the car is dirty as hell so when I get a chance to clean it off i'll snap a picture. VVG: what does this mean? "I live in Boston and wouldn't even look at a car with aftermarket tint: LEA are unamused." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikers Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I was at the meet with snow05gtRI and did the same thing 45% which combined with factory is the MA legal at 35%. My Legacy is Newport Blue with tan leather so mine looks ligher than his (black on black) so take that into consideration. My still looks REALLY GOOD (esp compared to stock) but if I were to do it again I would probably go like 5% darker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow05gtRI Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 http://picasaweb.google.com/havokx9/CarPhotoshootAtTheBeach took some pictures today at the beach. the ones with the license plate smudged out i did in MSPaint and it compressed the hell out of them (made them 3x smaller in byte size than the image from the camera, and it's already a JPG out of the camera). So tell me if you can tell a difference in the pictures that have an "a" at the end of the name and the couple that don't have an "a" at the end of the name (i.e. IM409a vs IM411) edit: oh yeah, i ended up driving down the beach in the sand when I was done. the car handled it with no problem, and the sand was pretty loose.

Kylar Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have 35% on the windows and 20% on the back windshield. Perfect IMO. Anything higher then 35% isnt even worth doing IMO, 50% looks superlight. For those asking about the little back window and why you can see the dots. Its because the dots are part of the window and they cant tint over that because it will lift and peel.

welby Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Just had mine done about a week and a half ago, 35% all around. I love it. To me, it's just right. My Buick has some really dark tint in the back and at night it's actually a problem seeing when backing up. Yeah, it looks good, but it's just too much. Had it done by John at Terry's Auto Glass in Greensburg PA, if anyone in the area's looking for a place. He did an awesome job and the edges are perfect. My neighbor (Whose truck is in the background) is the one who recommended him to me. Was $220 total. I'm not sure if that's bad or good, but for the job he did, it was worth it to me. http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/9898/legacytint.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWDxBOOST Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 law here is 50% up from and 35% for rear so thats what it got after i got pulled for 35% all the way around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmfuse87 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 This is probably the dumbest question in the world. That being said, here we go. When you say "35% all around" are you tinting the front wind sheild? it doesnt look like it, and i wouldnt think that you would. I just am not totally sure. Please go easy with the critical responses about how stupid this question is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow05gtRI Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 nope, not the windshield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please go easy with the critical responses about how stupid this question is. yeah AFAIK can't tint the windshield unless for medical reasons, besides that strip on the top. although i did see one dood (some truck guy) tint his to 40% or something and he said driving in the dark took some getting use to. sounds dangerous to me.

snow05gtRI Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 i think you can do 70% or something. basically a polarization film, no color to it i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimberDHexMods Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I'm getting that stupid tint strip removed from the top of the windshield and getting 20% or 30% for the entire windshield. Need to research it more. [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!
