It's Silver w/ Black leather inerior. This is a daily driver and I dont care about any tickets ill just roll down my sides when near a cop. I want the best looking. If you can recommed a name and type and what % you think would look the best i'd appreciate it, TIA emoji

u should get black or silver, eiher one will look pretty good. If you get silver get a shade that matches the paint. I have black ones on my car THey are 20% but i wish i went darker for security reasons . But the choice is yours Do whatever you want to your car because it is your car. Hope I helped.

Well, you can get any percent... it normally goes in increments of 5 but I know people with 18%, 28%, etc. You might want to do this... Put down a layer of 35% mirror and another layer of 35% black... it'll be chrome colored during the day and black at night. It would work out to be around 15-20%

i have 20%, it looks dark in teh day and really dark at night. I used to drive a car with 5% and i hated it, it was really rough to see at night. My friend has 35% on his black oz eclipse, it jus looks nice n clean.



don't mind the stock hub....she'll be off soon enough. And the car will be abck on teh road emoji

Look at my sig, Mines 20%, but on the windows it always gets a little darker. Ive got 3 tint tickets ranging from 15-18% all were metered. I think the cops need to calibrate their Tint meters! emoji
