I have a carbon blue gt, and I am wondering for those of you out there with carbon blue, and who have tinted your windows, how dark did you go?

I'm looking to tint them in a week or so...

I am from Toronto, and am not sure what the provincial laws are for tint....

any suggestions???

I know, but he was talking about tinting. I posted it therefore. I think it is not too hard to imagine that tint on another color car.

When i had my celi, I had 5% and loved it. It blocked all of the annoying SUV headlights. And it made the blue in the car stand out better.

ive got a silver celica w/ 18% "shiny lexus tint" the platinum plus is what my guys called it. and how is that 60%?? that looks really dark to me, and in tint the lower you go in % the darker/shinier/more difficult to see in.

Well, we might be talking in different "name systems" because I live in Europe.

To specify my tinting :

It's called Alu Saphir

Radiation transmitting 35 %
Radiation reflection 13 %
Radiation absorbing 65 %

Light transmitting 32 %
Light reflection 10 %

UV transmitting <1 %
Energie reflection 51 %

Thanks everyone.

Now I will have to check out the local shops to see how much they charge. Can't wait to see how it'll look.
