I just tinted one for a member a couple weeks ago (black fd). You will like it.

What brand of film are you having installed? Metal, ceramic, hybrid?

To what, the mirrored tint comment?

I know what he is getting at, and he didn't mean a pure silver, or "mirrored" film. He was referring to a neutral, full metal film. Some are more reflective than others, so be careful what you get if you do take this route because a pure silver film on a car looks like ***, so if you do this make sure the reflectance of the film is in the 10-12% range (the reflectance, not the VLT), as anymore will just give it the "mirrored" look. A neutral full metal film does indeed look bad *** on dark colored vehicles, especially red and black.

you got it. a pure "high dollar" metal film. i searched for photos but they were too old and the forum lost them.

the tint was leagal at 28% but looked lower because of the reflection.

I was trying to find some pics of work I had done on black cars with metal films, but I have yet to find the ones I am looking for. I have so damn many that they are burried somewhere on a disk or on my computer.

There's that black FD I tinted..Looks good man, well of course it does because I'm the one who worked on it.
