Judging from your location of Naperville, I'm assuming you're in Illinois?

Just so you know, in IL, it's illegal to tint your front side windows and windshield. The rear side and back windows can be as dark as you want, but to me, tinting just doesn't look as good without the front sides done.

The same is true in Georgia. The legal limit is 32%, but what's the fun in that??? haha..... it is darker than legal, but i havent been hassled about it yet. If i do get pulled over though, both windows are getting rolled down before the tires hit the emergency lane!!![sm=grinangel.gif]

Haha. I will admit that your car looks wicked with the dark tint.

I appreciate it man. The scoops help set it off too. I'm going for that "Dark" but clean look..... im considering black rims. Not drug dealer ones haha, but possibly some 18 or 19" OEM deepdish with the silver lip.

My friend has 20 all around (minus front) and whenever a cop pulls him over, if ever, he just rolls the windows down. He hasn't been caught... yet

yeah same here. Cops arent going to pull you over for specifically tint, at least here, but if they notice it they may tack it onto the ticket price. I dont have the windsheild tinted all over, just a strip across the top as a sun visor and it works well.

Thank you MUCHLY....... i thought it might! I figure I'd rather bend the rules a little to look "amazling" haha.

Just make sure whoever does it has experience with either BMW, NEW MUSTANGS, or BENZ because of the way the window drops when the door opens. If they dont know what they're doing, the first time the door is opened you'll lose 1/8" of tint and 100/8 of satisfaction. [sm=boohoo.gif]

and dont fret after you get it. the darkness will scare you at first but give it about 3 days and you'll be used to it. Good luck man.

Another good idea is to make sure they give a lifetime warranty on the tint, and possibly see if you can get felt put in, or your tint will probably become scratched.
