Model Y tint pictures

Wound up going 15% on the front sides (Formula One Pinnacle) plus Air 80 on the windshield.

This is the darkest I've ever gone with tint (usually do 25-30%) but decided to go for it since it would match better and the white interior really lightens things up. I'm glad I did, I love it. Seeing all the pics on here really helped my decision, so here's a quick picture right after I got it done. Will try to take some more pics outdoors soon.

I went with 20% front and personally think it’s too light. Do you guys think it’s a big difference if I switched to 15% front and do the rears 50%?

Prolly not gonna make a difference that one can notice from 20% to 15%.

Took a photo yesterday and this shows how matched my front and rear window tints are. Mind you, the back window is factory and the front has 20% Xpel Ceramic tint.

Marry a wife who is allergic to the sun, and allergic to sunscreen... Then you will always get tinting exemptions... I've had it on every car since we were married forever ago...

NYS Department of Health (medical review unit) has authority over tinting exemptions, which requires a form MV80w submitted to the Medical Review Unit. Part of the form (page 2) requires a medical provider (MD, NP, PA) attest to the medical condition. My wife has "any other" with a condition of "Polymorphic Light Eruption" which is fancy medical speak for her skin breaks out with exposure to the sun. Without tint a 20–30-minute drive will cause her skin to break out with bumps all over where exposed.

What tops it off is, as I said, she is allergic to sunscreen... Crazy right?

This exemption allows the tinting of any window to any level of your choosing. The only requirement is that you should be able to see... So, I would imagine the only way you can be ticketed (legally ticketed) is if you had an accident and they could prove that it was because of your inability to see that caused it. But at that point a ticket would be the least of your concerns.

You also can apply for any vehicle they routinely are a passenger in. Not just our vehicles. So, if she rides in a friend's car regularly, they can apply for the tint on their vehicle for her comfort.

Correct:

Front are 20% ? wow that looks really light could be the snow ? i have 20% but mine appears to be really dark but again i have white exterior /black interior

Mine is 20% as well. With the white interior, 15% will be perfectly match the rear window with no aftermarket tint.

I have white interior as well and I think my 20% tint matches the back widow that only have the OEM tint from Tesla.

15% for me would be too dark to see out at night.

Air80 on the windshield and rears. 30% Llumar Pinnacle on the fronts. I like the front and rear to match as close as possible. It's pretty close but the front looks lighter in the pic because the sun was coming in through the windshield.

20% is a perfect match. 30% looks way too light

30% was as dark at the shop would go, otherwise I would have gone 20-25%. But 30% is actually pretty close since the windshield tint filters some of the light.
