i dont want to hinder my Valentine1 detection range, so whats a good NON-metallic tint that would look good on a yellow car. im thinking black tint is the safest way to go ...i dont want that mirrorish looking crap.

you can buy pre-cut Llumar tint on ebay so you can do it yourself.

^^then plan on paying anywhere from $200-400. i recommend formula1 on spring forest rd. they do the best work however you are gonna pay for it.

from what i gather ceramic is the only way to go if you dont want to mess w/ the radar detector.. and ceramic is like $400

fuck formulaone, too expensive

8/16/2005 11:02:14 PM

tvpauto did my maxima - looks great thus far

i know a guy that took a bunch of tint samples and went to a supermarket. he said there was not a real noticable difference. but he did end up getting ceramic tint.

TVP (pete) did my brothers (LoYotaNCSU) tacoma and his Si before that and they were perfect

he will be doing my bonneville within the next month and probably my gf's accord as well

i think he did Scottyc's BMW too

8/16/2005 11:06:41 PM

formula one did all four side windows and the rear in my truck for only $170

why does regular tint effect the range?

oh its just talking about laser, just go for tinting

yeh, its the laser. altho the V1's laser detector is crazy sensitive anyway.. might not be a problem
