Default The koups getting tinted today!

Well, im bringing the koup to be tinted today, ive been putting it off for far to long. Im thinking 20% all the way around, let me know what you guys think.

Ill post some before and after pictures later today.

UPDATE

Alright guys here are a few pics from after my tint, i went with 20% all the way around (i did enhance the photos a little bit and added more light they were kind of dark so the tint is a little darker than it looks in the pictures)

alright guys i also got invited to the porsche club new porsche unveiling, so here are some pics of that, also a few sweet other cars i saw there also

Me too! lol I'm going 5% all the way around though, w/ a windshield strip. Yeah its not legal in Texas, but you really don't get any hassle from cops unless its Highway Patrol or State Troopers. I just don't like people looking into my car, and theres been a rise in car theft & item theft around DFW so I don't want people steeling my stuff! lol

The main reason in doing it is because I'm doing a custom fiberglass iPad install soon, and didn't want anyone to break into my car thinking they can steel it. It will be removable so it wont sit in the car when I'm not in it, but if people see an iPad dock they'll get ideas as you could imagine.
