I'm sort of feeling the look of no tint for awhile on my white si,but am wondering if I will risk fading the interior. I thought for 03' they had different glass, but I can't tell?

too warm in car, wouldnt be able to stand it if red stitching turned pink, theft reasons, visibility, safer (glass will not fly as easily in a crash)

for those reasons, im tinting my windows on tuesday... what prices did everyone get... Im gettin a REAL good job, 20% (illegal) and the tint is very good, other people wanted near the same price, would not go below 35%, and had bluish tint colors.... Im payin 300 dallars, but know that the job im gettin will never wear...

according to the website and brochures the 03 did add heat resisting glass. what it is is just a slight hint of green....

I got a quote from a Tint dealer on $180 for 35% for side all the side windows, so ill probably end up doing that when I have some extra cash...

i got 10 percent all the way around except the winshield, they were begging to do it at 35 percent( not for free of course). i paid 150 for the job, looks nice, they did a great job.

I payed $150 for the lowest legal allowed in my state. Plus, the tint is from Llumar so its the highest quality :) 28% in the 2 fronts and 18% in the back windows.

that is the good thing about tint, it not only keeps alot of the harmful rays out of your car and off you, but it keeps perps from seeing inside your car most of the time and scopin what you got. i have had ppl tell me that they cant even see me inside the car unless i have on a white shirt.

I like having the tint too because that way I can put my CD case on my back seat and no one can see it from the outside. I realy like having the side front windows tinted too because I notice that with sun glasses I get not bad glair getting through the glasses were they do not fully cover my face. Now with it getting warm and sunny I put up some of the windsheild blinder things (a nice cloth set not that cardboard shit) and after my car sitting in the sun after 12 hours my inside is nice an cool inside. :)
