Default Clean Look With NO Tint

Hopefully it's not a re-post, but dont you guys think that the Z looks better without tints. I just finished taking mine off and I just love the way the strut bar looks thorough the rear window and also my interior stands out more. Maybe its because I got the Black Z and I customized my interior with a blend of black and silver. It just looks very high end when its clean. What do you guys think? Tint or no tint?

the Z looks nice with out without, but I LOOOOVE my limo tints! My car looks so good!

I gotta take them off to get a tint-ticket signed off, but they are going RIGHT BACK ON ASAP. But that is just my preference.

The Z is a car that definitely needs tint. Not a fan of limo tint. A nice 30-35% tint is perfect.

Without a doubt, tint!

I'm doing 20 in the next 2 weeks. I work with someone who has 20 on a PPW and it's clean.

i like the look of no tint but i was never a guy who bought tint for the look. I put tint on my car to protect my interior from UV rays. It really kills your dash and leather over time. Also, i have very sensitive eyes and tint helps a lot.

Now don't get me wrong guys, I was on 35% tint for 3 years and I just wanted a different look, which I ended up loving.

I think the car looks great without the tint. My friends think otherwise. I had my roof painted gloss black (my car is SS) and I do think by just putting tint on the rear window would set it off greatly.

I like it both ways but right now I'm leaving mine without - it's just nicer to be able to see the ladies look at me driving the Z and smile

I don't think I can own a vehicle without tint, (I've had 5% on all my vehicles) I feel like like I am on stage or something.
