I asked for tinted windows when I bought my 2007 Pilot. Dealer said it was an aftermarket item them would arrange for, when it arrived I had it for a couple of days before the tinting appointment so I had a good before and after experience. Much preferred the look of the Pilot with the tinting, plus it added some security if you had stuff in the back as folks couldn't see it. I think the tinting really makes a Black vehicle look better.

Yes. I think you should tint the windows. It is suv and tinted windows will look better. I think it is just a personal pref.

I don't even want to tint on my 2006 camry. but 2010 pilot I have 35% and 5% tint.
In MI, you can tint any % on the back/rear. The front is unclear..
so check with your local tint laws.

good luck.

I would go for the tints. I also own a black Pilot Touring and I am planning to tint the front windows. In my opinion, tints give privacy, protect against sun rays, and help to keep the car cool. But it's up to you.

It would be a bad idea if you tint yourself. Just leave it to the professional.

anyway how many cars have you tint before?

Black Honda Pilot. Prefer tinted windows or non-tinted?-img_20110724_165930.jpg
I've only tinted one car before. The front two windows on the pilot took me about 45 mins. It came out great.

I prefer no tint. The standard tint on the rear windows is OK for me.
