I have a white celica and was wondering if 15% tint on the back 3 windows and 35% on the front two "since thats the legal limit in the front" would look good, or should i do 35% all around.

yea 35 in front and 15 in back would look good... 35% isnt too dark, especially for in the back, so I wouldnt use ALL 35. 15% all around would look good too wink.gif You can post more questions like these in the exterior section

15% all around and don't get caught laugh.gif
I've had 15 all around basically since I got my car(about 3 years) and haven't had problems yet.

And i have cloth interior, it is also tan so the tint probablly wont look as dark as it really is. Also the reason im sticking with the legal limit in the front is because my friend got pulled over twice in the same day last week and its a fix it ticket here so i dont want to waste my money and have to get it taken off lol. So 15% on the back 3 is a good combo with 35 on the front two? Also pics would be great because in the pictures page most people dont put their % of tint in their profile. Thanks

Question if your state law says you can go as dark as you want in the back and 70% on the sides what should I be looking for, 30% tint?

down here we go by levels...theres 1 2 3 4 and 5 I chose 5 all around and 2 infront, so I wouldnt know the percentages And does that quarter window in the rear count as a rear window to go as dark as you want?



IMHO tinted window laws are stupid they help alot in keeping the intense sun out of our cars in our dreadful summers.

I hate tint that doesn't match. I would never have it on my own car. I have 35% all around on my IS 300 and I've had 20% in my Celica. I vote 35% all around, hands down.

heres my state law for window tint, when I went to the store to take a quick look at what they had i saw that they said 5, 15, 20, 30% not 70% so does that mean I would have to use 30%? Im a little confused

Windshield Non-reflective tint is allowed on the top 6 inches of the windshield.
Front Side Windows Must allow more than 70% of light in.
Back Side Windows Must allow more than 70% of light in.
Rear Window Any darkness can be used.
