    anybody have a picture of a 97-03 with 50% tint on it?

    thinking about getting it for 01 its navy blue but MN tint laws are 50% all way around.

    Would like pictures before I commit.

    This.. 50% is barely tint at all. As long as it's not super dark I doubt you'll ever get hassled for it.

    35 isnt dark enough enough, go with a llumar ceramic 30 and youll be happy. Ceramic blocks more uv and heat from coming in too. Look Llumar or suntek CTX30 Again, i know that you have different laws that what i am suggesting, but 50 is nothing. I have 50 on my windshield but i would never put it on side windows

    35 is fine.. Not everyone wants the whole murdered look. It's still enough to make quite a difference and not deal with the hassle of being pulled over for it. It's close to what stock tinted glass looks like so he should be fine.

    50% on the front doors, limo on all the rears. Viewing angle and ambient light changes the looks greatly....

    You can do what i did and go with 20 all around with 50 percent front windshield. I did that for awhile but at night in unlit areas it isnt the safest so now i have 20 on front windows, 4 percent on rears and rear windshield. 50 on front windshield was removed. 4 percent is double 20 tint. I think its the perfect setup now!

    I ended up doing 35% all way around, in the daylight with sunroof open it is pretty light, I got a picture of about 9 pm and you can hardly see through the side windows might have to get pictures on here.

    I have 15% tint all around and yet, I still don't think it's dark enough and want darker...

    With 50%, you can practically still tell who it is who's driving, what they're doing...so if you want to stay legal..I would suggest not spending a cent on it.

    Your in MN so depending on where you live I wouldn't put anything on it. I grew up in northern Mn and cops are butt f#@4s about everything..... how your front license plate is mounted, tint, exhaust noise, bumper height, tire tread depth, ect.
