Tinted x5d, 20% in front
Hello -
I was told it's 15% in the rear windows and went with 20% in the front which seemed close since there is some tint on the natural glass. Here she is! |

Am I the only one who is bothered by the ez-pass tag on windshield? Not just your vehicle, but I think it just looks so out of place. I haven't stuck mine in there since I don't go through tolls that often, but I wonder if we spray painted just the bottom side if they would bill us for the tag when it's time to replace it.
Good matching tint by the way.

I don't notice it any more from the inside since it is smaller. I've never returned one either, so I'd say paint away. Only thing is serial number on it though

Looks awesome. I just tinted mine and went with 20% on the front only since the back is already dark and it looks great. Wish I would have gone with the same set up you have. It looks better.

Edit: It's $16! I am painting it with matte black spraypaint! However, I see there is also external tags we can get, but I don't have a plate in the front. Let's see. Pleas post more pictures of that white beauty.

Thanks for the idea! Found these: http://tonicconcepts.myshopify.com/c...ts/2013-t-case http://www.super-ez-pass-holder.com/...lder-1SF1V.htm Does the front one have to be completely visible? I don't have a plate in the front so I am thinking maybe I can mount it somewhere less obvious, afterall the absence of plate is to maintain clean look, wouldn't want to mess the looks with EZpass up front.

hyde, where did you get that smaller tag? The stupid E-Zpass mailed me the new/same old size one in 2012 to exchange my 17-years-old tag. The new/small one looks better.

They just mailed me the smaller one out of the blue and asked me to put the old one back in there and send it with the prepaid pouch they sent. I may have gotten an email notifying me about this but I don't remember. You can always go to EZ Pass office and swap them, or did you check if you can request a new tag online? I bought a can of plastidip, and immediately changed my mind about plastidipping the side markers, that thing doesn't look that even no matter how many coats you put and no matter how much you wait in between. However, this thread did remind me to plastidip the tags. The only issue is that those little velcro areas cannot be plastidipped so they will remain white.. I requested new velcros but I think they arrived with only the windshield sides not the tag sides. I like a clean dash so I changed my mind about the dash box.

Can't get the smaller tag like hyde has had. The support said it depends on the inventory. If I request the new one, I may get the old style tag or the new one. They can't guarantee.
This sucks. |

You can still visit EZ Pass office if you really want one.
