Window Tint

tcawley29

Hi,
gonna be tinting the windows in my car over the next few weeks (2006 corolla hatchback. will be doing front and back minus the windscreen and was wondering will 50% be light enough for the front windows. dont care about the law side of things, just want my car to look good :P. i currently have 20% on the back sides and its just too dark in my opinion so i was thinking either 35% or 50% but said i'd look for aadvice before i bought anything. thanks guys

Right so you dont care about the law?

So, you dont care about getting hassle from the gards?:rolleyes:

I belive the front side window tint is a N.C.T fail.

Tommy, you need to change your outlook on motoring.

2006 corolla, i was surprised too but looked very closely and either its a very minimal amount of tint or else there is none but i can't see any. then when i look at my parents cars (2008 and 2010 corolla saloons) i can see the tint in the windows. either way im 99.99% certain there is no factory tint in my glass.

Not giving a **** about the law is one thing, but it's in your interest to have the best view of the road possible.

Hi OP it's me. I'm you and I come from the future.

I have taken the body and form of another poster to tell you something. But I have to be quick because he is starting to get suspicious of the words he finds himself writing on the screen.

I am here to say that when you are older, the year 2021, in the time in from which I've come, you are talking among your friends about how when you were younger how you thought that tinting windows dark was cool. We talk of how we thought it looked good. We came to the conclusion that when you're young, you do things to your car that you could very well regret in years to come. I then came across a time machine in which I travelled to 2012, here today in which I.........decided...to.................what the f**k ! What is this ? I didn't write this ! What the f*** just happened ? ? ? Who wrote this sh*t ? Why am I on boards ? ?
