What do u think about CF style window tint? My windows need to be redone, and I think I can get the tint for free. It looks kinda cool, but I'm not sure how it'll look around the entire car. Has anyone seen it? I think I like the idea, but I'm not sure if it'll look tacky. I'm trying to keep the car clean and keep a good flow going.
 
IM CF batty, and i vote no, its very tacky.

fake cf atleast says im trying to be cool and pretend i replaced my stuff.

CF tint. Im an idiot and dont know what CF is, It does look like basket weave. I like baskets, im going to make some crafts tonight with my grandma after i drive home.

I think "ass".

Before you complain... you asked.
 
Replace all your windows with carbon fiber and use a periscope out your sunroof to see where you're going. You'll get all the ladies in no time.
 
stay away from anythign besides your classic tint. Either black, or mirror.. mirror is pretty bad, but a whole lot nicer than colored or 'carbon weave'
 
CF is only good if actual CF. fake or synthetic or look-a-like etc "cf" is just wrong. god will the whole "cf" fad just end so we can keep it clean looking. ugh :|
 
Do like Firebretha said and use flames. My friend has done it on a few cars. Mirror flames with black behind it. I have mirror stars with black behind it. My car is blue and I was going to do blue stars but the blue tint wasn't dark enough. Do silver flames.
 
Don't get them tinted if it's strictly a show car, you don't want to hide anything from the judges. ;)
But go to: House of Tints They can probably match up your flame design, and get it on your windows, well your new paint job that is.
Here's a couple examples:

>>>>>>>>one word...

G A Y! OMG
 
limo tint the bitches and be done with it :cool: and why not tint if its a show car? if your in a show, usually everyone puts there windows down or opens the doors and opens their hatch/trunk and judge by his display and car, i dont think he will have any trouble not "hiding" anything from the judges.
 
I'm not really for anything but the stock look, unless it's done really extreme and unique (Fully molded wide body kit... etc), and even then I'd prefer that it look clean (no decals, vinyle, or too many vents/openings in body work). However, I WILL admit that a flame window tint would compliment your car nicely... some blue flames over silver/mirror.
 
honestly man, i think the CF tint is one of the most hideous things to do to a car. its so tacky; it would go great with a huge aluminum wing, underglow, and NOS decals, but your car is the exact opposite of that. IMO i would also stay away from the "flaming tint" it just doesnt look right to have flames go all the way up your car. I would just go with a silver mirror tint, nothing out there, but unique. But thats just my opinion, you have to look at it everyday.
