Tint on Yellow MSP?

Been thinking about tint for the MSP... Anyone want to share pictures or suggestions? I know I don't want to get Limo all the way around.. I was probably going to do something like 40% or lighter... Just gotta see some pictures. (wiggle)

15% if i remember correctly... I would've liked them a smidge darker...

what tint is that/ oh can you show me a picture of your 6000k hid kit? is it a xtec?

no idea what tint that is. it's not my car.
the 6000k kit was on my spec v before it got totalled. Sadly i didn't take any pics. they were on for about 1 month before she got smashed.

may she R.I.P. (usa)
 
damn man sorry about the car.

I think the one that daedalus has looks good, the 15%. I am pretty sure that's what I got on mine.
 
I got 35% all around, and I'm totally pleased. Not only does it look great, but it protects the interior from fading, and keeps the cabin cooler in the summer.

Here are a couple of older pix of my car: (from last year's ProtegeFest)

I got my tint at The Tint Shop (this one was in West Covina...I'm sure they have it at any of the other franchised-shops); it's the premium, metal-ized tint that's supposedly guaranteed for life.

I like this tint because it reflects differently, depending on the time of day, but mostly based on the angle that you're viewing it. Take a look at how the back window is completely limo'd...can't see squat inside:

In case you're wondering, that other Speed is Tom's (YellowSpeed1229); he's definitely got a darker tint on his...you may even prefer his
 
someday I'd like to get a something like a 50 percent titanium all the way around. You should go with that pro parts. It would look way clean and wouldn't get too much attention from the coppers. I think that will be my choice if I ever get around to doing my windows. I can't get with the super dark limo tint. Especially when backing up a car. I feel all claustrophobic with it being that dark. I do understand having it though if you lived in the hotter states.
 
I feel ya on the money thing. Everytime I think about tinting, I think about what engine mods I want and it kills my tint craving
 
I got limo on the rear and had 35% on front on my pro. Im thinkin about goin 35-40% all around on my prelude. But that metalized tint looks pretty cool.
 
35% tint all around ..

for me, personally, i don't like different tints on diff. parts of the vehicle - gotta be even all the way around.

I haven't tinted mine yet, but I probably will this summer. I have to say that keeping the black tape on the pillars makes for a very nice looking car when the windows are tinted.
