![]() ![]() I put some dark black limo tint on the back windows and rear windshield and also went with darkest legally allowed by law on the front windows. The one time I did not take the advice of the installer I regretted it. I think the trick there is to make sure you are at a shop with a good long term reputation. I have usually allowed the installer to tell me what would look the best. I do believe that metallic does increase the reflective properties and give the tint more a glass mirror look from certain angles. ![]() Pre-faded? Like 80s jeans? I'm not even sure I want to ask about whatever it is that you have.īeing from Florida I have had many cars tinted except the hartge as it had some old tint already installed which eventually I peeled off the two front windows. ![]() Wkohler wrote:I have some gently used vintage tint available if that might interest you. I've had cars with tint, but never paid to have it done before this. I'm going to review my options at the shop with the installer before I do it, but I'd like to go in with a decent idea of what I want or at least be able to articulate my goals coherently. CT limit is 35% VLT, the shop offered 20% if I want it. I've read good things about "ceramic" and "hybrid" tints, but they seem pricey. GF uses her phone and GPS for work constantly. Does "metallic" = reflective when it comes to window tint? I've also read that metallic can mess with GPS and cell phone reception, which are problems I'd certainly need to avoid. Point of fact, I'd like to avoid that look entirely. The confusion starts because Onyx comes in metallic and non-metallic. He says Onyx is really the only choice for the Subaru since the charcoal won't match the factory color on the rear windows. The slightly less expensive option is "charcoal" which he says has a slight greenish tint to it. The guy recommends a color called "Onyx" which he says is "real black, like you see on limos". We've found a shop that comes very highly recommended, but I'm finding the offerings and options to be a bit overwhelming. My GF and I are looking to get the windows tinted on her Subaru Outback and my MINI Cooper. ![]()
