Z34-5speed Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I have 35 all around on my Z and i regret getting it instead of 20%. It just isn't dark enough IMHO, although legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, had it on my White Lumina, 20 on the back 35 on the side cause they said, it will look dark. BULLSHIT. I took it off as it was starting to fade.

ZacksZ34 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 I think mine was 15 back, 20 sides. Or maybe it was 20 back, 25 sides? well the place im goin to only has 5%, 20%, 35% and a really light tint i think it was45% so im definatly gonna do the two side rear windows and rear window in 20% and just to be safe im gonna do 35% on the doors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the rear window (big glass) done 15%, the less light that enters the car through the rear glass, the less light that the sides will show on the sides. They can still be done @ 35, 30, 25 don't care, just keep them the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaloutsider Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 well im gonna go with 20% for my tint chioce and as from puttin alot of money into my car im not planning on it i just want it to look good and make it my car show car. The most im gonna spend will be 1000 to 2000 to get it repainted If the most you're willing to spend on a paintjob is around a grand, I don't think you quite understand what a "show car" is.

LuminaPower92 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Ughhhhhhh dude dont get ahead of yourself on this car again. I like your car, but you seem to care too much what other people think of it. Make sure maintance is up to date before tinting the windows, getting headlight covers, and what not. Specially the TIMING BELT AND PULLEYS. A 3.4 is a maintance queen but an awesome engine. I know you want to get this thing a show winner but it wont help if its mint inside and out and your belt blows off. My Z is far from near as clean as yours is and I have huge plans for it, but the main thing is making sure it dont blow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
