I need help on deciding what tint i should go with all the way around I have a 1998 Gs400 Cinnabar Red

thank you

I don't know if you have concerns about getting tickets or getting pulled over or not. Personally I like 20%. Myself I have 20% on the four cabin windows, and I have 5% on my rear windshield and a Strip at the top of my front windshield that is 5% as well (its probably about 6 inches long). theres other things that come into account. If you have a dark interior like black or charcoal, it will make your tints look darker because your not reflecting much light inside.

I've got a black on black with 35% charcoal tint... all the privacy with none of the police harassment.

p.s. I do change my tints about once every few months it seems... but I usually end up going back to 35%

I have put 20% (medium shade) charcoal on all windows....including the front sides.....I found the 35% too light for me personally (the tint will fade slightly over time no matter what anyways). I don't do anything when I drive that waves a flag at the police & even if a cop pulls up beside me, I roll my window down so it appears that the front is lighter than the rears.

IMO, the one solid colour looks the best....not two or three different shades.

Use the state window tinting laws to make your decision. B) http://www.tintdude.com/laws.html

I just got 20's all around and I love it. With a good film, everything is visible from the inside yet dark from the out.

I have limo on all.. It is very dark and takes some getting used to.. I have to lower the windows at night when coming to an intersection or backing up because it is too damn dark.

Other than that I love the way it looks on the car.. I have not be pulled over since the tinting and it has been 6 months.

I'm thinking about doubling up my tint in the cabin. I want it darker than 20% but not as dark as my 5% limo. My back windshield got 5% and its hard as hell to see thru it.

I had my windows tined a week ago. I went with 50-50-40 (as 40% in the back) with huper optick ceramic. This combination is very much like factory installed... not too dark at all, just fairly shaded but supposedly good blocking of summer heat. I have a grey on silver gs430 so it goes easier with lighter tin.

I just got my tints done today (: I'm very happy with the results I got 15% back and 10% front.. I was planning on getting 20% all around but because of my tan interior it didnt seem dark enough (:
