poser_pilot6's photo gallery 		I would think it should be less than that.  I paid $100 for mine, all four side windows and the back, although that was about 2.5 yrs ago.  If you want them to do a strip on the top of the windshield its gonna be like $20 more usually.  But I think it shouldnt probably cost more than $125-150.  Shop around a bit.

That looks pretty good and not over the top screaming to be pulled over. I know some people who have gotten a tint then complain about not being able to see good at night. That's exactly what I don't want to happen but I still want it to look nice, clean, and fresh.

poser_pilot6's photo gallery 		Honestly, I dont remember what percent my tint is.  Its the legal limit in AZ, whatever that is lol.  Its not so dark that I cant see at night.  Im really happy with my tint.  And thanks for the compliment on my ride.

poser_pilot6's photo gallery 		Okay, I looked it up and the legal limit in AZ is 33% on the front sides, and anything on the rear and rear sides.  So Im pretty sure mine is 33 up front, and 20 or 25 on the rear and rear sides.

poser_pilot6's photo gallery 		Yeah, its not worth pushing your luck for 5%.  35 will look decent, it wont be real dark, but it will definitely look better than nothing.

19Accord97's photo gallery 		I wanted tint to, but for 3 windows they said it was $200.  Im like...no freaking way.  The place is called Ziebart, they install alarms and Rhino Linings too...so if you see them, they are a rip off!

03Sleeper's photo gallery 		Unfortunately, tints in the front driver/passenger and windshield is illegal in MD.

I dunno if I want to get the rear windows tinted...but then again, it would be considerably cheaper...

Thats so lame.  I dont understand why front tint would be illegal.  At least make 50% legal, thats not even dark.  Its the Nazis, I tell you.
