Visors suck ass for the looks.

I'd forgive it if you lived somewhere that rains 24/7 (Seattle?). That's about it.

I agree. They don't look good.

I agree with the above statements.

First off, who sells or even makes tints that are 43%?

Secondly, I choose dark and visors are not that bad. You barely notice them

^ I see visors everywhere... I definitely notice them - in a bad way - like massive wing spoilers.

Sean89 · 04-23-2009, 11:02 PM

Maybe he counted the factory tint % too? Dont really know how 43 is possible. Mine reads 29% on the meter.

So this sticks out in a bad way?

Dont know what people buy near you but WeatherTech is far from window spoilers.

i have the weathertech ones tinted
its not bad in my opinion
the clear ones aren't as clear as you think
i've seen them upclose and they appear to be slightly tinted or just have a dark appearance to them slightly at least. it's up to you though, they dont stick out as bad as avs or ventvisor more low profile
either way it'll still look good
by the way i drive gen 5 phantom gray with rear windows tinted
and tinted weathertech window visors
gen 6 tan no tints on the windows with clear weathertech window visors is in the family

legal limit is net 35% so they use a 43% hp charcoal to guarantee it passes mass inspection

They use the 43, 22, 13, and 6......my old car had 22 but ended up having to rip it off to get sticker cause mass got so strict all of a sudden....sucks but i dont want to get it retinted every yr.

I guess it depends on what version or model/line of tint you get. I have Solargard and its 35%. But dont know what line it is but more than likely top of the line
