I always say tint never hurts.. especially for a civic with no A/C
Imo .. Dont go to dark... but not to light... One thing i hate is cars with to dark of a tint where I cant even see through the rear window...

i do a really light tinting but none too dark or the popo will be mad since they like to know whats going on in the car....but yea just a minor tinting would actually make it look nice in my thoughts

If you paint it a dark color I say no tint.

tint is awesome. idk what everyone is saying. if you roll up and you can see right through, than not badass.
i'm thinking about getting it. but then again i have a black car and i like black.

lowtec has got some nice tints, I would say just right to hide any goodies inside but when near you can peak in and see some nice interior

well of course if ya got some nice stuff you wanna hide it but really it dont matter. but i was thinking do 35% round the car. then i can get a lil of both worlds. got a lil tint but clear enough to see threw. i wanna get the c pillar bar in the back window but i want people to see it from behind. i see all the 4 doors with it and looks so hot. ok ok now that i think this tint problem is solved what about paint????? It was that sea foam green collor or mint green. so all my jams an shit are that color. any one have a car with similar paint so i can get an idea if i wanna do somthing in the stock green look. with a lil docktering. i just wanna get out the way of spraying all my jams and stuff to make it look right. so should i paint it that color or no???
