    Just got my car tinted. I got 35% all the way around because I dont like windows that look like theyve been painted black.

    Let me know what you think.

    I just take 80 grit sandpaper to the face of them every other week. I dont like to polish the whole inside, because you can see the tip taper down to a 2 or so inch pipe. Leaving the inside black gives the illusion that the pipe is that large all the way back.

    You can go as fine as you want, but I see no big scratches or anything in mine from 5 feet away.

    That was my objective. If I didnt want to see through them anymore I would have painted them black.
