To tint, or not to tint?

[dr_011]

I do however want to protect the interior more than anything else - I'm wondering if a 18% would do the trick, dr_011 could you post a photo of yours?

Here's a few pics. I don't think mine is 'blacked out' at 18%, but I think it looks tits on a jet black. No regerts here.

Awesome dr_011, thank you for taking the time to take these and post them - really appreciate that! Definitely a good benchmark to work from, thank you!

Yeah, I think the real headline here is, as you've noted, in a sunny jurisdiction with the car parked outside, if you're at all interested in keeping it (this car particularly) tint is not optional. The sun will do all types of damage to your interior, and you should expect that zero of those parts will be available.

Ask the old Porsche owners about shrunken leather and dashboards. You don't want that smoke, unless you're going to redo your whole interior in boat vinyl.
