pic request...tinted windows
Hello, If you have a 911 with tinted windows could you post it up and tell me what tint it is? I am trying to decide if I want to tint or not...
Thanks!

This was the lightest tint, still not leagle in California but I doubt I will ever get stopped for it. It seems to keep the car cooler inside.

Limo tint for the rear window, I forget the grade for the side windows, but illegal. The front strip on the top of the windshield is also limo tint.

Ditto,
Limo in back but in Cali any kind of tint on the sides are illegal unless you have a genuine skin condition and have a current doctor's prescription.  PO did the lightest tint on the side so I never roll the window partially down/up. Cops in Beverly Hills love to pull tinted windows over. The give away is partially opened sides. I actually have a Dr. Friend who wrote me a note that I keep in the car  .

Unsure of tint%, but I'd call it 7/10 scale (10=limo tint)

20% tint professionally applied by a detail shop.
here in NJ, rear window tint is legal to any percentage, side windows are not to be tinted at all.

ok. whats the best way to remove tint. The tint on mine is purple now. It was a Houston car a long time ago and I bet it was originally a cool tint, but now its faded due to time and heat.
anybody?

20% all around I think,and the first shot the sunroof is open.
Too dark for me, I have to roll the window down at nite to look left,I'll srape it off after I feel I've used $200 worth. Also one with the window part down, wish it was a better picture, but even with my wife watching my back, a junkyard dog was coming our way ,we both ran to the car a took off it,it was a good laugh once inside.
