I want to get my windows tinted and would like to know who makes a good tint. I only want a normal 35% smoke, not mirror or fading stuff. I have used 3M before and looked at sun guard today. I just want one that will not fade, peel, crack, bubble, or any of the other unwanted things. Its going on a MB E430. Thanks

make sure you clean your windows yourself VERY well before they apply it. i'd also avoid pedro's roadside tint, if possible, so when he pokes a hole in your headliner you have a chance of someone paying for it.

ps: if you get it too dark no one will be able to see your nra sticker.

3M is fine stuff. But having a pro do it is excellent advice.

Anybody have info on the polymer tint that holds the shattered glass together and "catches" the bullet when someone tries to shoot through your car window?

I third the 3M film. Best out there IMO.

I had a dark tint on one of my past vehicles... got pulled over a lot for it and took it off after I got ticketed for it. I'm going to put it on my garage door windows so no one can look inside when I'm not around. I'm just gonna get the dark tint, not the mirrored stuff so as to be too obvious.

Years ago I bought a 72 Chevelle with dark tinted windows. I never got stopped because of it, but I did have an old guy (probably 40) tell me they were illegal. My comeback "So is driving over the speed limit and cheating on your taxes, but that doesn't stop you." He decided to mind his own business. Still funny when I think about it.
