is it ok to put tint on that back glass with all those defogger lines going across the glass?

StlRomAniaN · 01-21-2010, 09:25 PM

Yes. Many have tint including me.

tytus02 · 01-21-2010, 09:27 PM

do you mind if i ask how much your tint job ran you?

StlRomAniaN · 01-21-2010, 09:31 PM

I used 35% Non-Metallic, which is important, Pinnacle Tint. It was quoted at $450 for 5 windows but I talked him down to $300

Indpowr · 01-21-2010, 09:32 PM

Ours is 20% all the way around plus 55% on the front window.
300 - Tint all around
125 - Front window

I just did my second Camaro today. No problems with the back window. I went with 30% (legal here in FL). My yellow car draws enough attention.

will69camaro · 01-21-2010, 11:10 PM

Yep legal limit here. Went with the ceramic tint and it was on sald. $199 for the whole car. Did an excellent job. Second one they've done for me.

20% all around..5% about 3 inches below the ASI line..

Freebie from the dealership...non-metallic...no radio issues at all. Even on 610AM listening to Jim Rome every morning! lol

Legal in Montana, 25% driver and passenger door glass, 15% quarter windows and back glass. $150. Just remember to not get any metallic in the tint. It will mess up the radio reception.

They look great? You don't get pulled over for the front windsheild being tinted?

Ace198920 · 01-22-2010, 05:58 AM

You are allowed 5 inches from the top of your front windshield, down. Any other tint in MD on the front Windshield is illegal. And to Bad Karma. You should have them cut the front windshield tint straight. I had that problem with my truck. When they cut a rectangular piece for the Front Windshield, it fits the curviture of it and looks concave. To achieve a straight line, the tint installer either needs to measure and cut once the tint is applied to the front windshield, or somehow make the correct convex shape, so that when it is applied it becomes straight. Thats just my .02.

I have non-metallic 35% on the side doors and 15% on the Back Window. I paid $140.00 for tint.

WICKEDSS · 01-23-2010, 07:52 AM
