bronze window film tint question
 
Anyone knows of a bronze tint that looks or matches the look of factory bronze glass found on 10th AEs and other models? Thinking of tinting a windshield lol

I don't know about the states, or whether the car is a road car for that matter. But tinting a wind screen is illegal in ontario, canada.

i know a few ppl that have tinted their front windshields. I think it was 2 rx8's i worked on. Im pretty sure its illegal to tint it here in the states too

well, i suppose it's not illegal until you get caught.

I hope you have some awesome 24k hid's to go along with it for night time driving as well.

I will be using a very light tint.(hardly noticible) just like the one found on AEs and some gls-se's and even some fd's.

If you use REALLY light tint, they will usually not fuss, although it is still illegal.

If you are doing a dark sun strip at the top with tint, it cannot go below the AS1 line or 4 inches if the AS1 line isn't there.

I'm thinking 50%. just a touch of bronze should be ok, I'm sure cops won't even notice .

A trooper might nail you for 50%. I'd say go less tint if you can.

The DPD won't give a shit though. :)
