a.d._510_n_ok Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Is that because so many of ya'll are from the PNW where you're happy to see the sun during those rare breaks between eternal rain or is it a stylistic choice? Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Id rather dump a few hundred on the motor or suspension before window tint lookin good comes second here :fu: Quote Link to comment

kmc63 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 If I had tinted windows the honda drivers would'nt be able to see me waving as I blow past them. Quote Link to comment
fastdadd Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 mine are tinted but it is that stuiped purplish black crap...need to take it off and redo but will have to wait Quote Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Here in AZ most of the guys run tinted windows. Your car turns into an oven if you don't. I had an 1984 RX7, and I had a thermometer in the a/c vent......Came out one summer day and it read 160.......ONE HUNDRED SIXTY inside the passengers compartment! Quote Link to comment
NorCalDime Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 i dont think 510s look good with tinted windows.... Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I have tinted the windows in both my DD's, and will do so in the Datsun also. Its a comfort thing, I hate sitting in traffic and getting cooked by the sun. Quote Link to comment
thisisastickup Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 mine came with tints on the back three, i'm thinking about taking them off. Quote Link to comment
djlotus Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I picked up some tint the other day for the car. Gonna get around to installing it soon. Quote Link to comment
Z-train Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Limo tint on all back glass. Quote Link to comment
620mike Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 i did all three back windows on my 620KC 2.5% and it looks good improved the look of the truck alot..... but i cant see out them at night lol Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I got a Ratsun sticker, that's better than tinted windows. Yes, it doesn't often get hot enugh in Western Washington to need tinted windows. Some of us still have original Datsun dashes that aren't cracked even though parked outside. We just crack the windows on a hot day (was 93 in seattle area yesterday). So that leave "just for looks". Ratsun's all about function over form, or was it rust over function? Quote Link to comment
PEZi720 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 its been stated already... but lookin good kinda comes second Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) I think looking good is just a side benefit from a product that will help me avoid skin cancer :) Edited July 6, 2009 by Beau M Quote Link to comment
Edz280zx Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I'd like to tint the windows on my Z...if nothing else, just to save the carpet from the sun. Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I prefer being able to see out the windows. My 4X4 has the rear slider tinted, and if I want to be able to use the rearview mirror I have to open the slider. Quote Link to comment
Z-train Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I have limo tint on the back & 1/4 glass.I have no issues seeing out the window.:confused: Quote Link to comment
mazdat Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) I think its an era thing, i won't put tint on my Datsun no way, i rather have nice clean windows (clean enough that it seems that there's no glass) than tint, having tint is like having 20"s on a 510, or even having TV's and big sound systems, just my opinion, depends on taste i guess Edited July 6, 2009 by mazdat Quote Link to comment
chebetio510 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 i have tint doesn't look to bad Quote Link to comment
mazdat Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 i have tint doesn't look to bad it actually looks pretty good with tint, the color on the car is nice, helps the tint out alot:) Quote Link to comment
The love of JDM Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Not a fan of tint on older cars Quote Link to comment
Edz280zx Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 The only reason I'm gonna tint mine is to preserve the interior...I don't have a spot in the garage for it, so it sits outside. Quote Link to comment
fastdadd Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 here is apic of my trucks windows...i like having the back window tinted...i dont have night view on my rear view mirror Quote Link to comment
