I am looking at tint too. When I was younger, I might have stated anything above 20% was rubbish. Nowdays, Im older, have more... er... violations, and dont really need a reason for cops to give me more trouble than I can find myself. Having said this, in GA, I believe 32% is the max legal, so I will probably be going with 3M's 38%, just to stay legal.

Yes, there are all kinds of color combinations. You can get rainbow tint if you REALLY want it. Ive seen silver, red, amber, blue, green, (all metallic), green non metallic, purple (its what happens when you buy cheap tint and use ammonia cleaners on it), gray, blue. Pink. Seen a pink. I think you can probably get just about whatever color you can think of... if you look far enough. Just dont get rainbow... unless you like it. Then by all means, go for it. In Georgia, it is illegal to tint the windscreen more than 5 or 6 inches from the top.

Thanks for the link; I'm clueless no more. Pink tint? Are you serious? Hmm...that must be to compliment Honda's limited production Barbie Edition Fit, in Pretty Pink Pearl, for Valley Girl wannabes everywhere.

Now about that rainbow tint...shaggalicious!

My '09 SSM VSA/NAV Fit is due in by the end of this week, and I'm already thinking about tint.

I recently downloaded the '09 Fit Navigation Manual off the Honda website, and it gives specific warning against using metallic based tints near the dashboard (I imagine including the ends of the dash at the leading portion of the front door glasses).

Has anybody with factory nav used metallic tint without a detriment to nav performance. I wonder how many people out there have nav and tint on an '09 at this moment?
