Octane window tint

[jastra]

Hey guys anyone got it yet?? Thinking of getting it because I want something dark but don't want to be getting in trouble with the bacon. Got bolle atm just wondering if anyone knows if it is considerably darker or only slightly and not worth changing.

Cheers

bolle tint is pretty dark..

ive got 20% on myn and the bolle is close to it so i doubt ur going to get much darker without doing wat i did

I would only go darker if your current tint is slightly damaged or starting to fade. Other wise a small decrease in visible light would not be worth forking out the money to get ur film removed and new tint applied. Unless your going from 35% to 5% then the difference is quite significant.

yes, but optical clarity goes right out the window. Like looking through milky glass.
Extremely durable for teenage attacks though

Some windscreen glass is pretinted and there is word of ability to tint windscreens upto 85% coming soon but other than all u can hav is the strip at the top done

haha, 85% VLT still means it can be mirrored, which will be awesome for getting out of speeding fines.

Only thing you can put on is a 5% strip across the top.

We'll never be aloud to tint windscreens, its extremely dangerous because u have to make decisions at a very high speed. If anything was to impair that it would definitely cause mayor dramas. Not to mention the reflection you would get of your dash would make driving very irritating and polarised sunnies wouldnt help either because they make tint appear to be rainbow coloured.

Also the point that the sunnies lens are up against ur eyes there's no gap for glare compared to a windscreen :p
