So I just got the car the other day and I was so used to my other car's tint that when the sun hit my eyes I couldn't stand it. So after school I drove right down to a tint shop and had them wrap all these windows up. The tint really helps and I can't live without it! Pics!

I've had 2 tint tickets in my life. I personally think a good 20% tint all the way around is good, eliminates the glare. Atleast, it did for me.

I had limo tint on my car... with it being black.. you could not see anything inside...

I got pulled over a few times for it.. I got it written off a few and I know I get pulled over because of the tint and they get me for other stuff and I can't afford that at all anymore

so I removed it this month...hopefully I won't be a target anymore..:D

I made it a year with 5%. I used ot live in a very small town so all I had to do was just put the windows down before I drove past the cop. Leaving the car wash one day and they spotted me. I just had to remove the tint on the side windows within 5 days, no fine.

My other car had the same amount of tint and I have been pulled over for it before. It's really not a big deal if you know the ins and outs of the law.

I'm guessing thats 5% tint. Thats pretty dark but I like the look. pgt892, your car is sweet, except for the stripe.

His car isn't the 5-lug SE model. Those are the wheels that came with the car, on 97-98 LE's... thus the 4 lug.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I don't really like the stripe either, but it was on the car when I got it and I haven't taken it off yet.
