I'm jealous!! The shops here will not apply it that dark as they can be fined by the state. 35% on the sides and limo on the back is what I have.

Anyway....Nice ride!

You will be asking for trouble if you are ever stopped by the police. Dark tints are illegal because of potential danger for police and even other motorists who can not see your face or if you have a gun ready to fire.
A good friend of mine, a state trooper, was shot and killed by a motorist during a traffic stop. So don't tell me it can't happen.
I don't know of a legitimate shop that will tint your windows that dark. It is illegal for good reason.

Trooper being shot is not a good reason to limit tint darkness...Tint doesn't kill people...people do.

Yes, people do. But dark tint is illegal for that very reason, so police can see who's behind the window and if they are armed.
If people behaved, there would be no murders, no need for jails, no hunger, no war, no crime, etc.
And there would be no need for laws. People DO all that stuff and that's why there are laws including those limiting the tint on a car window.

Looks great, I did the same with the strip across the windshield. Love it.

For the record, I've tinted all my cars 20% or darker on all windows. As long as you have those windows down when the officer approaches you on a traffic stop and you act civil with them, 99% of the time it's a quick stop just to explain to you that you shouldn't have the tint. I'm 34 years old and will never be without a minimum of 20% and Limo outback. Since I was 20 I have only been ticketed once. $75 fine, but I was a jag off punk when he pulled me over for it.

Well people hide guns under their clothing too, but I dont see any laws restricting apparel.

(except in the beach counties _ )

If God had intended for us to be naked, we would have been born that way.
