I haven't seen many of these, what do you guys think about tinting the windows on a classic? Anyone have any pics of one with tinted windows? I am thinking about putting limo tint all the way around on my FB when its done.

i think limo(5%) is overkill on a classic. i personally like the look of 20-35% all the way around...and 50% on the windsheild [patriot]

yeah. if your car is hella clean and restored, keep the windows clear. it looks much better to have see-thru windows on classic cars [patriot]

I think with darker windows with the Laser Red paint it would give it a more menacing look to it.

You might as well put 20s and 18" subwoofers in while your at it. Maybe even a mural of jesus on the hood.

LOL
I was thinking of a little 10" in the trunk.
Its going to be a resto-mod not a complete restoration.
Its going to end up looking like a GT500 but without the front fog lights.
It'll look like this but in Laser Red

I say go for it. I put 35% tint on my back 3 windows and it looks great, and keeps the car cooler. Mild tint is a great look for any car.
