I paid $220 for all windows + the windshield visor. And yeah, go with black.
Hey sprostang

Do you or anybody else have any pics which show the windshield visor tint a little closer? I'm thinking about to ad that to my windshield but I'm not quite sure if it will look okay.
I dont have a pic but it looks great. The legal limit here in IL is 6.5 inches down from the top of the windshield. Do it and you wont be sorry.
What I was concerned about is that stupid doted stock tinting or whatever you wanna call it. I saw one which had it tinted over and it looked awful. How is yours done. Did you tinted over it or did you take if of?

The tint is right on top of the dotted part and it looks fine. After the tint is installed, you need to push it down to get it to stick properly without looking like s***. The guy at the tint shop said to slide my finger across the dotted part about every 8 hours or so to keep it tacked to the dots for the first 2 days of the curing process. Thats what I did and it looks fine.

I got 5% tint on my car, wouldnt do anthing else, looks too good. I paid around $175 for everything including Windshield.

P.S. I love it when people try to look in and cant see me!

Here is a Pic. 5% on all windows, 35% Whole Windshield.

I would love a 5% tint, although I'd probably be getting pulled over left and right for them being too dark. They look sweet on your car, but how can you see at night?

I don't know, I have a silvery type of tint on my side windows. It's not very dark at all, but it's just enough to give the silvery color. I'll take a picture of it next time the sun is out (yeah, the sun out in Michigan? it may be a while...).

Ok I couldn't take it any longer. I just scheduled an appt for tomorrow morning, 20% tint all around (except windshield) and a lifetime warranty. $100 for 5 windows - I've had friends take their cars to this place and have had nothing but good experiences dealing with them.

Can't wait, I love tints.

Thats a steal of a price, unless it's the colored tint, then I don't care if they were paying me $100, still not worth it.

They do both, but like the level-headed citizen I am, I said, "Good sir, surely thou doth not think I possesseth a junker. I wish for a tint as dark as the soul within the devil himself. For although my journeys are arduous and uncertain, I mainly wish to obscure my face from the peasants that trample my earth."

Well, maybe not quite those words, but you get the idea - they're all black.

And that's their regular price! I should've looked into it earlier.

I don't know if you can claim to be a level-headed citizen talking to people like that on the phone.
