Looking for do’s and don’ts and any recommendations.

I’m torn, I have the black white contrast, I think a tint kit would be cool but don’t want to black out everything. Don’t want to be Batman :) part of me likes the factory look...

Thoughts?

The angle of the photo almost looks like it has tint.
After just getting Ultra Premium tint on my 2018 yesterday, I say install tint ;)

I Have tint on my OW 16 CS, looks bad ass with the black roof. It had tint on it when I bought it, I think its 25%. Oh yeah, tint it for sure.

Factory is like being in a fishbowl.


All of my cars get 5%.

I actually was talking about tinting the lights. The windows do have tint

Darkhorse I know I know.... Those covers are the one mod I regret doing. After spending that much $ I can’t force myself to remove them

I can't imagine purposely making my car darker inside. My biggest complaint with the Mustang is the lack of sunroof, to let even more sun, light and fresh-air in.

Tinting running lights, in any way, shape or form, is simply beyond stupid.

Yeah in my opinion tinted lights are not worth it. Sure they look sort of cool but they can also get you into trouble.

Tinting the lights actually does reduce the light output . And if you're ever involved in an accidental at night insurance will possibly reject the claim due to the tinting of lights. Or find you at fault.

Tinting anything is just an excuse for cops to pull you over....legal or not.

I'm a no tint person. Yes, it makes me visible, but I like waving at people who think the idea of having a car like this is cool (whether they have one or not) and I like giving idiots my dad stare when they're acting a fool.

Plus I live in Seattle, so there's no reason to have tint for like 80% of the year. :)

Living in Phoenix? Yes.

Headlights or taillights? Tinted taillights look good on these cars, and they are definitely bright enough to work well still. Or if you want them a little darker but don't want to worry about legalities, you can do black package taillights. I personally dislike the look of tinted headlights.
