Yeah! Got my windows tinted today... GA tint limit is 32%, I opted for 13% and MAN is it dark! Black car, black/gray interior, BLACK windows.... yeah... I can't wash the car for a few days with the new tint, but I'll post some pictures as soon as I can wash it.

plus a 50/50 chance of getting my lift this weekend.

No point in this post except to gloat a bit, but hey, we all have those days..

I am going to be getting mine tinted soon. I had 20% on my last cars and at night you cant see ****(living in the country), so think I will go with 30% this time.

Why cant you wash the car? I have had 4 of my cars tinted and never heard of that, just couldn't roll the windows down for 3 days.

you can wash your car, you just cant put your windows down for three days. make sure you use a class cleaner without amonia as well.

Odd, every single car I have ever owned I had tinted and the always said not to roll the windows down or wash the glass ( inside or out) for 3 days. Even says it in the warranty info.

I have never heard that, sounds silly to me. I understand not washing the inside, but what if it rains, will they not tint a car unless there 0% chance of rain for 3 days, and if it rains does that void the warranty?

they probably dont want someone blasting water into the weather stripping and having it get into the interior, causing it to drip down onto the tint and f*king it up

^^ Exacly what I was thinking. Not every vehicle seals perfectly and water can get onto the inside and run down the inside of the window. Normal washing wouldn't do it, but not everyone is normal

nice man! I got my tint couple of weeks ago, 35% front and back and 30% on the door windows and I couldn't ask for more! I asked help from http://www.TintBuyer.com. They provide relevant information about window tints such as its benefits, quotations, tint limits every state and will help you find the best professional tinter near your area.

Click to expand...

any tint is illegal in PA... but i've had 35% on all my cars and never been bothered. i find it's about the perfect amount! unless you live in the desert or an extremely sunny/hot climate then i'd say 20% would be nice!
