Window tint Vs. Nite Shade
« on: Feb 29, 2008, 10:55PM »
hey guys, i had a train of thought this arvo bout window tint and i just wanted to run it pass u guys to see what you think.
i was thinking this arvo instead of paying around 300 bucks to get your windows tinted to a dark shade couldnt u just buy a can of nightshade and spray your windows to tint them? i read it applications on the side of the tin and it said it would stick to glass. what are your thoughts on it? illegal? or just plain stupid??? lol
- sorry if it seems like just another stupid question, but i am a tight ass and dnt wanna spend 300 buck or more on tint lol

i think the biggest problem would be getting it evenly distributed. the tint is an actual film so its not going to have the blotchiness of a spray can.

maybe test it out on an old peice of glass to see what it looks like when light is passing through it.

i used night shades on the rear windows of my wagon, looks good from out side the car, but trying to see out the glass is near impossible.

I'm guessing that would be your biggest problem. It looks good from the outside (as shown by the R31) but would be a bitch to see out of.

Btw thats a hot R31 wagon  :)

if you look from out side the car thru the painted window and thru the tailgate glass you can see how un-even the shades are.

My bad, what size rims are they? I wouldn't pick them to look good on a wagon but looks the goods!
