I know for sure ziebart will do legal tint, like the hatch. I'm not sure if they will do anything beyond what is legal on the sides but they are definitely a reputable place worth checking out.

there is a place her in champaign that does tint and does a god job as well. The place is called Z Tech and it is on Prospect avenue. Not too sure of the phone number. They did 5% all the way around on mine. It'd be about a 40 minuted drive from bloomington.

The sig pic was obviously taken before the tint..lol

I had wizards do a riviera i used to have and they also did a hatch for a 97 camaro of my friends. They do good work. Can't wait to find the time to get my 2000 done by them.

Ziebart in Bloomington did mine. They said they'd do anything I wanted as long as I knew the laws regarding tint. I had the back done in 5% and a 6" strip on the front in 5% - all legal. I thought they did a nice job.

Mines not legal, 5% on the hatch and 20% on the side windows. Only one ticket in the 2 1/2 years I've owned it. Cop was an a$$. That was 2 years ago.

Alright, well Z's was already closed by the time i got home, so i'll have to catch them later. About how much did everyones tint cost. I talked to a friend of mine today that has a real nice vortech mustang gt, he got his done at a place in peoria, prob. the place icrazy6 got his done at. Looks good. I'll prob. just go to any of those shops that do it for the cheapest. What's normal for hatch and front 2 windows.. 200?

I think the rear was $75? and the sides were $30-35 each, plus no tax if you pay in cash.

Think mine was around 150, but don't quote me on that. I got my sides tinted the lightest they had and it looks really dark with the black leather. I always have them down with the tops anyways. Cops are getting really strict about the side window tint and exhaust. Since they passed that noise ordinance, I heard they are pulling over people with any kind of aftermarket exhaust too!

aww hell i forgot about the whole b/n noise ordinance crap - wasn't that mostly to do with all the downtown bars? I think it's crap loud cars get pulled over all the time but a Harley (running headers, pipe, tips) can cruise around without worry. I say screw, I should have my true duals on within a couple weeks ($$) so i might as well throw on some tint and just stir things up even more. Don't really want to go the cutoff route. Theres a really nice white Z06 that's always shootin around on Veterans, anyone know who it is?? also saw a sweet black vette that was cammed headin northbound on Vets while i was goin south. Both looked like really nice rides. Only seen one red T/A while in bloomington though.. WFO- what are you ridin in?

Mine's a red 02 WS6 with 01 wheels and black bird strips....Full exhaust and cammed. Had it out once this year, but took the motor out to sell to a buddy and sold my clutch. Bought my new motor and it's supposed to be finished next month. Buddy who was supposed to buy my old motor back out so I have a 20K paper weight in my garage...lol!

My DD is a pewter 02 GMC Sierra SB RC with a cowl hood and pan.

Haven't seen the white ZO6, but there is a black C5 ZO6 with an exhaust and cam. Then there's a C5 with C6 ZO6 wheels on it putting 700 to the tires. Built motor with a Pro on it. Works here with me, but really don't know him well.
