You can try V-Kool meteorite, medium neutral in your windsheild & rear, and medium dark at the side.

If heat is your concern....Go for V-Kool......mine was installed by LACars last April.5, no regrets if installation of tint is concerned...

I know there are plenty of good installer in the market now a days...just choose the reliable shop for buying the original tints.

* Hindi ko lang alam, if the Service after Sale is also good in LACars (i never tried pa naman). Maria & Amrit told me that VKool has a 5 year warranty....maganda naman ang pagkaka-kabit, no bubbles and no gasgas.

Disappointed lang ako sa tinting room nila, sabi kasi w/ airconditioned & dust-free room..........yes meron aircon...pero blower lang + electric fan pa kasi di kaya mapalamig buong room....dust-free room???....no comment on this........its up to you to check............

Para sakin mas malinis ma yun Audio room nila.......that only my experience....after all satisfied naman talaga ako sa pag-kakakabit ng tint in my red Honda.

Hi nagpakabit ako ng super black for all the windows and medium black or just light black on my windshield (tagal na kasi e nakalimutan ko na).

Is it advisable to add a neutral magic tint at the back of the original medium black? hindi ba kaya sobrang dilim nang idrive? right now okay naman sa driving yung present tint ko, natatakot lang ako pagdinagdagan ko sobrang dilim na.

Kasi pag gabi tinitignan ko yung car kita ako sa loob e thru windshield parang walang tint, pati umaga.

Ayaw ko kasi nakikita yung kaguwapuhan ko baka magkagulo e hehe, atsaka tamad ako magseatbelt para walang huli

eto lang masasabi ko. once ko na natry magsuper black sa harap, mahirap makakita sa gabi pero hindi ka naman kita sa loob. i suggest, wag masyado madilim ang tint sa harap, yung normal lang. hindi sa para hindi ka makita, yun eh para hindi ka mahirapan magdrive sa gabi lalo na kung ang kalsada eh wala or minimal ang visibility

3M superblack ako all around but medium black sa harap one piece dun sa civic ES ko. under direct sunlight, no shade, at a distance of 5 to 15 meters with the observer looking at the front with me inside, hindi daw ako naaninag. kita lng ako (or yung tshirt ko, pero just barely) pag kulay white yung pang taas.

sa gabi medyo kita kasi yung dash instrument illumination, tumatalbog sa tao kaya medyo kita. pero most times di naman.

yung sa civic EK ko na naka japan tint lang, neutral super dark all around and medium dark sa front, wala talaga makita. may reflective properties kasi yung neutrals. maganda yung tint na ito, kaso habang tumatagal mas nagugustuhan ko na yung madilim na driving environment ng 3M super blacks. ewan ko ba medyo tumtanda nako siguro, masakit na sa mata pag bright lagi ilaw ehehe.

i don't think it's wise to do 2 layers of tint. the color and clarity will only be as good as the first tint. kung neutral magic yung 2nd layer malamang di rin kita kung naka medium dark ka sa front. plus, ang dilim nun!! baka sa gabi yung visibility mo ilang metro na lang lalo na kung walang ilaw sa daan...

Thank you for all your suggestions.

What if kung ilagay ko neutral magic or light magic(meron ba nun hehe) sa medium dark tint ko? kasi parang may pagkareflective quality yun diba? so pagtingin sa windshield mo di ka na makikita

Nagpark kasi ako sa isang lugar under a fluorescent light eh halos parang walang tint ako pag gabi, kitang kita ang tao sa loob, yun nga lang grayish ka pero makikilala ka.

Saka nagpapaconsult muna ako sa inyo bago ako pumunta sa isang tinting shop. Alam mo naman dito magtanong ka sa mga shops lahat puwede lahat kaya baka naman pagnakabitan na ako papatanggal ko uli.

inulit ko lang eh... hahahaha...

what model of 3m sir?

we had our first 3m brand tint on our trooper ( 3m dark magic tint) and i cant feel the heat rejection it offers. so i had it replaced by a solar gard dark magic black and its gives a big difference on heat rejection and privacy.
