Tint
Tint I just wanted to know how much money it will cost to get both my windows, rearglass, and winsheild tinted? also what is the darkest tint i can put on my windsheild?
I paid $200 for premium on the rear and sides. Windshield would be 75-100.
Deff dont go darker than 35% on the windshield.I would not tint the windshield if you ever plan to drive at night.

u gotta look up the tint laws in ur state. i know in VA, for cars, we can paint the back window black, as long as our 3rd brake light is on the outside and visible. as far as the sides - the driver/passenger windows are only aloud to go down to 50%, but the police cant ticket u unless ur over +7% any other side windows can be painted black. windshield - dont think u can tint past like...the top 10 degrees - pretty much where the stock tint stops.
im not sure if the laws really change from state to state..i think they may be pretty much the same. it really depends on which police officer sees u that particular day. some dont care if u black ur car out all around..also depends on how nice ur car looks. if they think its a suspicious vehicle for any illegal activities, then they'd probably use that as probable cause to at least pull u over an get to know u a bit better.
as far as prices go - i paid about $180 for both windows and the back - 35% on the side, 15% on the back. if u get real dark in the back, ur front 2 windows will look darker than wut they really are by nature...kind of an optical illusion? but prices vary by location. look up some shops in ur area, or even in a city/town that ur willing to drive to, thats respectable and relatively inexpensive. OR u can just learn to do it urself
hope this helps dude...

yea its varies quite a bit from each state. in Illinois im not suppose to have anything on my door and i have 15% on there. when i got it done the back hatch was already done and the doors cost me 80 bucks. and id really think about that front windshield before u do it. just search tint laws on google or something and youll find a chart about each state.
