I am about to finalize my purchase tomorrow, and its a good thing I made it before the July 1 price increase. I am getting an S-variant, Modern Steel Metallic color.

I am at a fence what tint to get, since from my City, I just went with the Casa freebie 3M tint. I was not knowledgeable then, but I think those freebies are the bottom-line 3M tints, tama po ba?

I read a post here (3687) that a 3M CS20 front, everything else CS5, is a good combi. Can someone confirm nighttime visibility? I am after privacy since this will be my first vehicle without a trunk, but without sacrificing too much visibility, since I ply the SLEX on nighttimes often (kapag inabot ng B-shift ang OT [emoji28]).

I would also appreciate if you guys can suggest a reputable tint shop down south (Im from Laguna).

Many thanks in advance to you guys, and keeping my fingers crossed that my unit won't have the dreaded front-kalampag issue. [emoji120]
If privacy is your concern so definitely you need darker tints... the purpose of having vkool is for reduced heat even on lighter tints.

If you go 3M black tints, go for CS series instead of the freebie which is the entry level one.

Ok naman CS5 sa back and windows.. except for those really dark areas with scarse street lamps. May times i have to slow down while turning as i cant see anything on the side.

CS20 for me is ok naman sa windshield.. parang laging uulan ang view mo cos makulimlim hehe but visibility at night is ok... as long as you maintain your windshield properly to avoid the watermarks. for me kahit lighter tint ka sa windshield pero malma ang watermarks, mahirap talaga visibility.
