I have a 97 es in the champagne color...I'm going to get it tinted but I can't decide between a black tint or a charcoal tint. What do you guys think? Also, should I have them remove the third brake light and tint that area, or have them cut around it?

Lexucan

Just my personal opinion but, on a lighter colored paint, I would probably go with the charcoal tint instead of the black. And about the third (center) brake light, I'd definitely remove it and tint the whole window. I've seen a few cars where they cut the tint around the brake light, and it looked like *BLEEP* !!!

And about loosening the brake light assembly, I chose to do that part myself before I took my car in to be tinted. Call me ****, but I didn't want them ripping at it to get it out of the way. Plus, I was able to replace the light bulbs inside the brake light housing at the same time. They weren't yet burnt out, but I figured this was a perfect time to do it while the housing was loose anyways. The new bulbs only cost a couple of bucks, and I figured nice new bulbs would burn brighter and show up better through my new tint....and I wouldn't have to think about replacing them again for a looong time!

Have you considered bronze?

I agree with Lexucan 100%. If you want really nice tint you can get Huper Optiks but it's kinda pricey but worth it.
