What % tint you got

Not the Tundra, but I had tint done this past Thursday on my Wife's AT4. I went with a Llumar Pro dealer so we could get up into the Formula One line.

Front Windshield - Air Blue 80%
Driver and Passenger Window - FormukaOne Stratos 15%
All rest of rear windows - FormulaOne Stratos 35%. Man is it ever worth it. It is amazing at how much heat it knocks down, especially in a black vehicle. It is a lot more money to jump in to the higher end ceramics, but man is it worth it.

 

30% ceramic all around and 45% ceramic on windshield.

 

I got stopped the other day for speeding and the guy checked the tint 11% (previously installed) Thanks for my perfect driving record I didn't get any ticket yay me.

 

Double Ceramic 5% on the sides and back and 35% on the windshield currently. Unfortunately, I don't have any current pictures.

 

5 on front sides, 5 applied over factory tint on rear and rear sides (stupidly dark, but not sure what percentage). Love it.

 

30% ceramic all the way around.

 

5% side, back over factory tint. 50% windshield with 5% strip that hangs just below the rearview mirror mount. I wish i've done 35% on the windshield, 50% is still too clear for me lol. Ceramic Llumar CTX

 

5% back, 10% front sides. Ditching the 10% soon and going lighter to 35%. I can't see anything at night. I tint as a side hustle.

 

Even though 20% looks nice in the day, at night time you will most likely roll your window down just to see when you are backing up. I would suggest going with the legal 35% while you still get UV protection, but visually tinted during the day.

 

I think around 15% cause it's a little darker than 20%>

Is this MGM with stock black flares? I've been debating putting mine on without painting or wrapping them.

 

Yes they are unpainted.

 

Can go lower than 35% in Maine. Inspection stations are pain in the asses about it so I havent even bothered yet.

 

Had the front side windows tinted to match the factory rears. Installer said it was some oddball 23% or something. 20% to 25% seems to be a nice match for the factory privacy glass.

Looks great as far as the match, and keeps things much cooler inside the truck. I would not want any darker for nighttime visibility.

This is without the sunshade which I normally have in place, and clearly the sun is directly through the front in this picture.

 

25% fronts to match the rears. Doesnt affect night driving really. 35% is the legal limit in Maine.
The cops have never given me any probs but I also dont drive like a douche. My uncle is a Marshal, former Statie, and said its an excuse to pull you over if they want but otherwise they dont typically give a shit about tints, also have never had an issue getting a sticker..

 

I've had a couple guys tell me there is a tint available nowadays that is dark from the outside, but doesn't appear dark from the inside. I'm not sure this is possible. Anybody know if there is a tint out there that does this?

 

Basically all tint does that till its dark out... Then it's dark on both sides.

 

I’m using 35% maxpro maxcool IR film on my driver and passenger front windows and oem on the back windows.
I’m sure it isn’t the best or worst and only cost me $85 to have both windows done. From the outside it is close to oem. From the inside it is a little darker.

Very, very sharp Tundra. I was looking for that exact truck. But stumbled across the Metalic Grey and couldn't pass up the deal.

 

I almost bought a magnetic gray nightshade edition but found the cement limited I was looking for somewhat local. I really liked the nightshade package and wish it was available with Cement paint. I’m very happy with my color choice, but often wonder if I would have liked the Magnetic Gray just as much. The downside to the Magnetic Gray is it’s darker and shows more dirt and harder to keep clean

 

I went 50% and love it. I was worried about it at first, but the tinter showed me 50 next to 80% and the difference was hardly noticeable. So, I went with the lesser of the 2.

 

hey man. i just got a 2019 tundra sr5 crewmax and im liking the stance of your truck. what are your wheel and tire specs? and did you have to cut out anything for clearance?

 

Thank you.
Yes, I had to cut and clear to get those tires to fit. In that picture I had 35x12.5x17 tires on Methods. 1.8” lift in the front, no lift in the back.

Llumar Ceramic... 15% on front windows, 50% over the factory rears and back glass... 50% on the Windshield and Sunroof...

 

5% all the way around. and 50% on the front windshield. I never been pulled over for tint. I wont take it off for a ticket either.

 

Windshield tint is good for at least 50hp right? If I go darker, do I get more hp?

 

I just had my two fronts matched to rears. Also, had sunroof done. I have not done my windshield. I worry about a rock chip or crack and have to redo it....

 

I put 23% on my front side windows and 38% on the rear sides and back window, all ceramic. 5% strip on the top of the windshield. With a tint meter that works out to front sides being about 14% and rears close to 9%. In my area you wont get stopped for tint by itself. Here they really wont bother you about it, during a stop, if you drop all your windows and turn on your dome light when pulled over so they can see you, your hands, your passengers etc. when they walk up. I won't drive my tundra downtown Chicago because I would likely get stopped just for tint. That and its tough to find street parking for a 19ft vehicle.

If I did it again today I would probably go 35% up front and 45% in the back over the factory tint.

 

Been tinting close to 20 years…personally I run 18% Global QDP ceramic on the front doors and rear doors…and doing the 70% on the WS this week…the rears meter around 10% and the fronts meter 16%
Not sure if the 3rd gen glass is but Laminated glass does meter lighter than tempered …
On the topper rear glass did 4% QDP…but came up with some canvas curtains for the windoors

…also this pic weathertech sunshade is in.
Side note buy a quality ceramic film …support a solid shop …and you will get a good install!

 

20% on all 5 for me.

I sometimes have to roll my windows down at night.

 

20-30% all day.
