My first "mod" - window tint

[AtlantaDave]

35% (legal) on the sides and 20% on the rear window.


Sun side





The rear looks MUCH darker in the pic, but all in all better than stock

Looks good.

I has the same thing done to my 2010 EX35: 35% front and 20% back (My EX came with the rear windows already tinted from factory).

Initially, I did not like the visual and obvious difference between the front and the rear windows but now that it is dark early, I can't think of having it darker! It would make it dangerous! With the large front pillars and the tint, crossing intersections safely is challenging when it is dark outside (night). I am having difficulty making sure no pedestrian or cyclist is crossing the street when I am stopped. It is even worse when the headlights of the car behind me is reflecting in my rear view side mirrors. I am not an old fart here with bad eyesight either! I can't image having 20% tint all around. It would be dangerous...

I go slow at intersections!

AtlantaDave - hoping you're in Atlanta! Can I ask where you got your tint done, if you're still happy with it and around how much $$ you spent for it? I need tint on my brand new (to me) 2008.
