Default Window Tints

Alright, I've been thinkin' about gettin my windows tinted for awhile now. I've always thought that the black on black (my car's black) would look good with the chrome cobra rims I've got, but for some reason my friends, and my girlfriend, are against the idea. Not sure if they're on crack or what... cause I can't think of too many things that look as sexy as a blacked out mustang.
Anyways... can you guys help me out with what kind of prices I should expect for a quality window tint? Also, 15%, 30%? Any pictures would be great.... thanks!

are you doing it yourself? if not by my house they charge $150 all the way around for any percentage then the windshield banner is $10, thats labor and everything. If you are talking about just prices for the tint. i am not sure because i always get mine done, because i tryed doing it before and i thought it was hard to get it right. it looked like crap. If you buy your own tint dont settle for a price get the best. my friend did his own tint and a few months later it turned purple.

mines perfect 25 front 5 sides...i did 5 all around but it was hard as hell to see out at night..and it wasnt worth risking my car to make the windows a little darker..so do 5 on the back and 25 up front..looks really good.

I personally love 5%.. Had it on all my cars all the way around. I will try to get some pics up once I get my new rims on my car..

Black car/5% window tint = Sex
White car/5% window tint = Sex

I have 17% front and back. Cops dont mind it cause you can still just barely see in the car. Great for privacy when you dont everyone staring at you.
