hey all
who out there has tinted windows? i've noticed that the interior of my car gets incredibly hot sitting in the sun, the louveres help a bit. i was thinking of getting everything tinted black? just wondering how well that would work with a gray 1st gen

Front windows are solar tinted,the rears are limo black.....

damn, i like that. i wonder if it would be legal to get the front door windows tinted limo black as well

Ill get a pic. Looks VERY nice.

It wouldnt even be close to legal, unless you have a medical condition(vampirism?)
I have to keep a cert. slip in the glovebox just saying that the solar tint is legal,in case I get pulled over!

tempusfugitive

hows the temp inside, did u notice a big difference between before and after?

My car has all the windows tinted, looks to be about 35% tint. Old pic, but I think you can sorta tell.

Limo tint here, ignore the decal on my window, it has been replaced with a much more styling Rx7club.com sticker. thanks Polakgraphics! Not only does the tint look awesome, it also hides my stereo very well from the outside.

i guess i'll have to post updated pics when i get it done

ya, its not very expensive either, I got my 3 windows tinted for 150 bucks (canadian) would not hesitate to do it again!

i'm gonna try to get the door windows tinted as well, not real dark or anything, but just enough to be legal. u think i should get the hatch tinted while i'm at it? i got the louvres, but i guess it would look bad if i ever decided to take them off for a bit

steve84GS TII

I'd do em all. Again its not that expensive.
The shop will be able to show you the darkest legal tint for the fronts.I cant really remember about temps changing,Ive had my tint and paint sceme for about 8 years now.I usually leave the roof cracked to vent hot air, if its a sunny day.The glass moonroof has a chrome/reflective dark tint that probably helps a lot to block radiation.Dark tint is also a great theft deterant,stereo or otherwise.
The only downside is you lose the kickass, GTU Championship sticker on the driver's side wing window.......still wish I could find some of those to stick on the outside.....

Here in Washington I believe that the leal tint for the front windows is 25 and there is no legal limit from the back. I had another car quoted a few years back and that is what the guy told me.

i guess i'm going to have to ask about whats legal when i take it in for a quote

I always did like Weird Al Yankovic.......Rice Rice baby...........
........LOL..

Well give me some advise....What should I change, dont bash, help me out.....What would make it look tight....? I know the tail lights & wing will make a difference.....What else ??

tempusfugitive

hey rotech7 i really like the old school 7 u got there, thats proably what i'll get as far as tint goes, another thought i had is that i'm proabaly going to have to swap in the hatch and rear windows off the parts car, as the windows that are currently on mine have been pitted by welding

as far as the new school goes, in my opinion
lose the tail lights, wing, and model the back end more closely after the old school and it would look pretty sick.

limo all the way around wouldnt have it any other way and my hatch is tinted in one piece removed glass and wiper and all the metal buttons on the glass

I guess in FL you can limo tint the front door windows and not get pulled over?

Nice tints BTW, no rice rice baby.
