    Btw, any suggestion as regards what color/tint goes best with a silver car?
    For a silver colored vehicle, try other darker colors like black or charcoal. IMO, Dont get the gold or silver shades.

    I am still undecided on the exact shade, but I have also read somewhere that they have a silvery tint for their silver car. Maganda ba yun? Or personal preference lang talaga? I ask the tsikoteers' opinion kasi kayo ang magaling sa usapang cars.

    Also, pag nag lighter shade ba ako sa windshield, does it mean na kita din ako? This may sound silly but is there a tint na di ka kita sa loob pero clear pa din ung view mo palabas? There are so many choices and it's really hard to decide. Please help.

    A dark shade tint matched to a light colored body paint (like silver) is a personal preferrence formed from observing other units on the road. My vehicle's color is also silver and I plan to use either black or charcoal when I have it tinted within the week. Btw, we used to have a silver 1990 Corolla with really "silvery" (almost like a mirror) silver tints. It doesnt look ugly naman but I still liked the black tints on other silver corollas back then.

    About the visibility of the tints, get the one-way (sorry forgot the proper term) tints if you dont want to be visible to pedestrians or other people outside your car (when you are using the car). But when you are using the one-way tints, you can see clearly outside, just dont overdo things (like putting two layers of black tints-you wont be able to see at night).

    I think a one-way tint is what I need. Anybody here who has this kind of tint? I'm really planning to have my car tinted ASAP. Your suggestions will be very useful.

    number001 is right... Heavy black tints look very nice on silver cars. Just see for yourself...
