Default Rocking the Fishbowl!

Got tired of the purple faded tint in my car and decided to take off the window tint. was waiting for winter time to do this so better late then never. i will eventually be putting on some window tint when the warm weather comes back around. heres what she looks like without tint.










what do u think? tint or no tint?

Tint. Go with 15% or 5% tint if you do get it. Your car looks really good without tint though. Mine looked really stupid without it for some reason.

5%???? You wouldn't even be able to see out of it. Not to mention you'd get pulled over ever 5 minutes.

OP - car looks good without tint. I reckon it'd look better with though.

I've been considering getting tint on mine but keeping it legal (50% sides and rear).

I love the clean look of no tint. It looks really nice on lighter colors too! I personally love my tint on my car but its midnight indigo so it blends nicely. I', not sure, I'd probably rock no tint to be honest and keep it classy if I were you. You can put that $200.00 to better use.
