Hows it feel at night with 20% on the back window man? I need to have mine redone
soonish and since my last car was done by the tint professor aswel ill be going back
to them. I found 35% hard enough to see out the back with at night on my last car...

People always saying you can have 20% on the back window cause you are directly
looking at the window.....but I still also thought it had to be 35% all around the car to
suit our VIC laws...?? Cause if this aint the case then ill be goin 20 on the back myself
being a white car, that looks sweet :thumbsup:

Nothing :'(
Just a quick question about the exterior handles... Did you replace the backing as well and get that sprayed... Or did you just take the handle out and replace it with the chrome one? I really should have looked into this a little more before buying them but oh well :p

with 20% on tha back there is a noticeable difference & I wouldn't go any darker (dont know how these guys with 5% tint in other states see properly at night??). The difference is not as noticeable at night with 35% but visibility is still good, I only struggle with 20% in dim areas etc. otherwise theres no problem. 35% is tha darkest legal in VIC but when it comes to your rear windshield, tha law is not so clear, but I wouldn't go any darker than 20% 1. reduced visibility 2. cop bait!!!

just as a side note, tha pics posted prob. show tha tint at its darkest, that is, depending on the angle of light, tha tint looks slighter lighter but tha pics above show it as its darkest...if that makes sense???

I just took tha chrome handle out and used tha new parts that came with the handle (which work much better now) but used my old painted backing (waxed them up and gave them a good polish) they came up looking brand new! no more key/ring scratches from previous owner :thumbsup:
