Tint or no tint???
I am pondering if I should tint my windows or not. I have owned a few hot rods but never tinted them. I am concerned about hindering the visibility further and I don't know how dark I should go. I understand that this is my choice and I should do whatever makes me happy but I am looking for some advice, opinions, and what yall think I should do. My car is black and orange (see sig block).

I always tint. Protect the interior from the sun, keeps the interior cooler, and finishes off the look.

Tint! It looks much better.
I went with 35% all around (except the windshield) and it presents no problems with visibility. |

I'd read this forum a little bit and look at all the horror stories about the police pulling people over for illegal tint. Seriously though, I live Phoenix and it gets up to 125 in the sun during the summer time. Given that the windshield is so small my Camaro doesn't heat up anywhere near what my previous cars had. I'd save your money and spend it elsewhere.

Tint. I did mine at 5%, dark as ever. Never get pulled over. I don't drive mine at night very much so I don't worry about seeing out. and I have HID's so I light up everything infront of me. And I tinted the top of the windshield too.
DO IT, you will thank us later

definitely tint and go with 20%, 35% can be easily seen through from the outside.

Tint! It will set your car off visually on the outside, and help on the temps. and your eyesight on the inside.

Tint is the only way to go. 30 or 35% will be good.

I did 15% on the rear window and 35% on the sides. I think its perfect, back window is a little tough at night backing up, but I don't find it that big of a deal.

Definitely tint. Dark color car, dark interior, 35% all that way around. Some may think that is too light but once you got it on, you will see that it is just the perfect tint. I am not a fan of mismatch %.
