ing-schu@online.no Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 My prescription Armani sunglasses cost $230, my tint cost $210 iirc. I can however walk around with my sunglasses on, let's see you try that with tint. I think MC might be able to in the Mousetrap with the door open and seatbelts still on... Did MC ignore or miss this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MazdaMomma Posted April 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 I drive a manual and in heavy traffic try to leave some space (I don't want to burn up my clutch with stop-go) so I leave it in gear and idle along. But like MTS said, there are douchebags that always pull infront of you if they can get that extra foot ahead. And MC, how can you not see through their cars? I can understand when the oncoming light from say a sunrise blinds you to the point you can barely see through your own windshield, but aside from that...you need practice. I agree that there are db's that do that and there are also db's that pull in even if there isn't enough room to fit. Perhaps it is because of my height? I sit fairly low in any car that I drive. Always have trouble with oncoming lights blinding me. And no, I don't need a damn booster seat (). I will test your theory again, but still don't see it being feasible. And even if you could see thru the car in front of you, if they are riding the ass of the car in front of them, how the hell do you expect to see their stoplights? If they have a 3rd brake light, then yes, you could see that. But, if it is an older car or truck, they don't have that 3rd brake light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renboy Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 This is exactly the reason the 3rd brakelight was put into law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enginph Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Transparent uv windshield tint all the way. And ren how the hell you see through the car ahead. It is only possible in day light with proper height and type (sedan). Besides i dont know about Canada but in US the lanes are hella wide. I travel to leftmost or rightmost if i wanna see ahead.. I hate those of who gets in front of you decreasing the distance. Heck i dont wanna brake while cruising at 60-70 mph every minute like those idiots thats why i keep distance..

Troutman Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 In terms of blocking the view of the car in front, 4 wheel drive wagons and the like are a bigger concern than tints, but mind you the legal limit tint here is sane, yet effective.

mohamedeladawy@hotmail.com Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 in all honesty...i would only get side window tint because every summer, i get this awful t-shirt tan. and my left arm would be slightly darker than my right. also...windshield: no tint...thats just plain stupid...now a uv protectant clear tint (of which they do have) is great to protect the interior. other than that, 35% tint all around including rear windshield. then again...i only have 3 windows in the car (excluding front windshield) anywho..carry on.

Troutman Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I was only talking about a very light tint, as I always thought it looked a bit funny having dark glass everywhere except the front. I wouldn't risk it in reality though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
