Post pics of your truck if it has Tint! I'm about to Tint my truck and want to see what it would look like with some on it. Post away!

It's cold here and I wondered the same thing, my friend had an old box of cling-style window tint so I threw it on really quick just to see. It's 5%, has bubbles, and isn't cut perfectly but I did it just to see the difference. I liked it so much I left it, mistakes and all, come spring I want to replace my sliding window with a solid one and will have it tinted to 5-20% before installing it-that's the plan anyway.

well it's not letting my insert any pics (linked location or from my computer) so here is a link to a thread that has pics of the back of my truck.

I wish I could do the whole cab, here in Iowa it's back windows only, front door and windshields must be free of any tint. You can get a prescription type document from a doctor if you are ultra sensitive to lights at night (which I am) but you would still get pulled over a lot and have to show the card to the cops. Just don't want any reason to ever get pulled over so I just never had the eye dr do it for me.

What I have is technically illegal but so is not running a front plate and I have only been pulled over once for no plate in two years and received a warning and while I was looking for my insurance card the cop was trying to look through my back windows and I know you can't see through them but he didn't say anything about it lol!!

Haha that's awesome. I don't want nothing too illegal or dark just because I don't want to have the hassle of cops stopping me. But 20 sounds like a darn good number to me, and nice pics yall! And should I just get that Tint from Walmart? It's pretty cheap so I don't know if the price matches quality. Anyone tried it yet?

Don't get the tint from wal-mart. It's cheap and turns purple after a couple years. Get on ebay, there are a bunch of places on there that sell pre-cut stuff and it is the same film style tint you would get if you had it professionally done. Plus its pre cut. which makes life way easier.

I bought a kit for my super cab for $25. They guarentee it and let you chosse multiple darknesses. I have 15% on my back windows and 20% on my fronts. If you screw a panel up they will send a new one for like $3. Do yourself a favor and buy a good squeegee too. Also make sure you take your time. It took me about an hour and a half to do all 7 windows.

I take my vehicles to a place that does it I think they charged me around $150 to pull out the old tint and put the new tint in my obs.
