Tint: Wasn't a believer before - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I was on the fence about tint. The laws here are kind of strict (50%) so I guess I didn't see much value. There was a place that had a sale so I decided I would go for it, if nothing else to help preserve the interior. I had them detail the exterior too, I didn't think I would do as good of a job...

So here she is...I did go with 45% (I hope that's close enough!) and a nice shine! I will say...even if it's only 45%, it looks 100% better. With my interior being as dark as it is...the whole thing really looks dark, especially from a distance. It makes the windshield look darker from afar too.

Is that a 45th in black?

She looks good! I just had tint done myself recently and it looks fantastic with the victory red and even better on the black!!!

I live in NJ where anything is legal in the back and the little corner windows. I got 8% done on the three of them (which I believe blocks 92% of the light). I'm debating on getting something light on the side windows (doors) in order to protect the interior, but I don't want Inspection passing problems. I haven't decided what I am going to do yet.

Yeah, the 45th..."carbon flash" aka black granite.

It was a little overcast so it's hard to see the metallic in the pic. Probably time to start my mods list in my sig too, I don't see that ever ending. For that matter, I should make a sig pic...forums are so much work!
