    Tinted windows or No tinted windows?

    I am just curious, are tinted windows still considered cool on cars?
    Currently my Sentra is limo black all around and I can't see for shit out the windows at night. :(
    I am debating whether I should tint my Corolla S or not.

    Tints are the best investment I've made so far. Now people can't see me picking my nose. :p

    I got 35% all around.

    I might be happier with 20%, but then I might not see as well at night. I'll probably get 20% on my next car.

    i think i have 30% all around titanium not sure thou but i am planning to take-off the tint
    at the back window... night driving became a drag specially when it rains...


    if i were to put tint again i will not use titanium on the back window coz it creates
    a little glare coming off those headlights behind u

    imo light tint makes the car more classy u know like light shades? hehe since side view of our car looks german ahe

    You may laugh... but that's what I do in my car. Tint is a must for us nose-pickers. I mean... when it's there you just gotta get at it. And sometimes it doesn't want to come out very easily. I don't want people to stare at me doing all that.

    i would say get tints for sure, especially if you have a black rolla.

    plus i feel like the sun is glaring in my eyes when i ride in a car that doesn't have tint.

    LMFAO, as a cronic nose-picker, i totally understand you guys. But sadly enough i have gone for more then a year without tints and my windows are still naked. I gues its a good thing I live in wyoming and have plenty of open roads to pick my nose on. hahaha.

    But wouldnt you have to tint your windows pretty dark to completely block people from watching you pick your nose, like 5% or something? Im thinking of getting 15 or 20%, do you guys think that would be adequate for nose picking privacy?

    I can't believe we are still talking about nose picking LOL. Yes it should be enough, I have 6% in the rear and 13% in the fronts. My gf flicks people off just for fun and to see if anyone will notice.

    I think tinted windows is available as a Toyota accessory. Any idea how dark they go with it? I wonder if it's nose-picker friendly.
