DeLorean Window Tinting Advice

[Patrick C]

Who all has tinted windows? I just ordered two new toll booths to replace my scratched ones and will make sure to cushion the inside of the door to prevent further scratching.

I figure the shop will have an easier time doing the tinting with the toll booths uninstalled. Any other tips/precautions are welcome!

I had the door windows done, the qt panel windows and a strip about 6 inches wide on the windshield done. Decided against having the rear window done since the qtr panel glass tint did a good job of keeping things shaded.

On my first D, I had 5% all around. This made it really tough to see @ night, especially through the back (5% on back window + 5% on rear quarters = dark as shit).

With this car, I'm probably only going with 15% all around... Still plenty dark, but shouldn't be as bad @ night.

I got Ceramic Tint, expensive but it blocks out the same amount of heat as 15%, and you cant even tell its on. I had all the glass done, windshield included. You cant even tell its there. It is amazing to have the heat of the sun on you and then close the toll booth window or door, immediately there is no more heat.

It works great and no one will bother you about have blacked out windows.

I could go for 15%. I like the idea of chromed rims, black side stripe, and black windows. Sexy.

I don't plan on tinting the rear window, only the quarter panel windows, door windows, toll booths, and top of the front windshield.

black side stripe, and black windows

IMO the tinted windows make the black side stripe look a lot more congruent with the rest of the car. It's part of the reason I went with the strip on mine.

I don't know what percentage tint I have but I can snap a pic if you want.

Just out of curiosity did you have your windows tinted or was the car like that when you got it? I am thinking about getting some tint work and am trying to decide where to go.
