josh, I did on mine. Im really happy with it. Can upload pics later if you want. Spent about 140 to do mine.


Be careful who you go to, especially since on the Mustang windows they go down a tad when you open the door. You want to make sure whoever does it is familiar with the car. I just went to a Ford dealership.

Oh, the dealership would do it? I wasn't sure if they would. I wonder if they'll only go to the state legal limit though? Virginia is 50% on the front windows, which isn't quite enough.

I'd like to see some pics. Do you have any before/after?

 

[Syringer]

Yeah girls don't dig a guy whose ride doesn't have tinted windows. Be sure to add rims and a full body kit if you ever want to get laid.

 

[erikistired]

no.

 

[clickynext]

Yeah, make them all opaque.

 

[Mrvile]

Then get a huge spoiler. A HUGE spoiler...and a really wide, I mean REALLY wide body kit. Then a 10" muffler would do nicely. Then some neons. Then some 18" chromes. Yeah.

Yea, I do have before/after. The Ford dealership itself didn't do the tints, they had a guy that came out to the dealership that they go through. Obviously familiar with the Mustangs. I only went the legal limits in Florida which is 30/15.

buy a civic

no. it will piss the cops off if they can't see in your vehicle.

 

[acemcmac]

No because you don't know where you'll be driving and many states have problems with it.

But I think that states must respect other state's laws on automobiles when it comes to out-of-state-registered vehicles, not their own, which is why in Virginia you must have 2 license plates (1 front 1 back), but a Louisiana vehicle with only 1 plate (back) won't get pulled over for it.

 

[shamrock1313]

Of course.

 

[Eeezee]

yes

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No.

 

[Gunslinger08]

Bump.

I seriously doubt that Ford does the tint job. They probably farm it out locally. Just call the Ford dealer and ask who they use then go to them. Cut out the middleman.

 

[AdamSnow]

Depends on the color of car...

Black/Red = Yes

That puke green color = No, don't spend any money on the car... it's already garbage.

 

[mugs]

If you want to tint the windows because you think it looks cool, I wouldn't. I don't think it makes the car look any better. If you want to tint the windows so the car will stay cooler in the summer, then do it.

 

[skace]

That's a lot of yes's, Are those all sarcastic yes's ?

My last 4 cars have all been tinted. I go limo tint on the rear windows because it helps keep the car cooler in the summer heat and it looks better IMO. It also helps keeps the bright sun out of my child's eyes, which was especially important to me when he was a baby.

Edit-All the tint jobs on my cars are legal. In CA it is perfectly legal to go as dark as you want on the rear windows of a car. You cannot tint the windshield or the front door glass though. CHP will pull you over and cite you for tinted front door glass.
