Window Tint

[Porschekid]

I love my tint... I get nothing but compliments. If you have a glass rear window that you can tint, I think it looks great.

i think tints is the number one thing you do to any car. totally changes the look of the car. the boxster window being small, look even smaller with tints. n takes away a lot of heat. i open the window and pure heat comes down on you. close the window and it's not as hot.

i love my tints.

I'm thinking that if I'd had a legal tint I would have liked it... but my tint was limo black.

Illegal and dangerous... with the windows up at night, I've had three or four near misses with pedestrians and the side of my gate and garage. I simply could not see out of them to navigate safely. I can see why they're illegal for front windows.

I'm with you though... ANY car I buy get tint on the windows the first week of ownership. Houston's known as "sauna city" for a reason!

Interesting observation: I rarely see convertibles with dark tint on the windows. Looks odd with the top down to lots of other convertible owners as well I guess.

Ah Randall, you ol' timers and your eyes... Actually, limo tint may be kinda dark. I'm the next step up from limo. I love it. C'mon, this is Texas, we need it as dark as we can get it!

okay then randall you win...lol...i guess limo tints can be dangerous, looks aside. i just like the way they look on the car...lol. make the car look real mean.

i have legal tints and they aren't that dark at all. but i would also take them off, if they were dangerous, because i couldnt see.

Oh dude, don't misread my thoughts on dark tint... it looked WICKED on my boxster from the outside looking at the car and I felt like I owned a batmobile or stealth fighter jet! The whole removal decision was about safety, legality and passing my inspection.

Nothing says " I am from the hood" like a nice dark tint job.

That and really really big rims!

IMHOP!
