Ive done it before but I would leave it to the experts. I did my entire truck and it looks good but took so long and frustrated me so much that I wouldnt do it again haha.

I sent them an email via their website. Reason im wanting my windows tinted is one it will make the truck look a little better and two my ac wont have to work as hard. Now i just have to decide on the % of tint i want. I know whats legal so I'll probably just go with that. Any suggestions?

Find a shop that is a little hungry. Many don't have as much work as they would like to have and will make a fair deal. Your AC will thank you. If you run 35 on the front glasses and limo the rest of the way around, you'll be legal and cool. I have 20% on my fronts and double layered limo on the back... not legal but I like it.

I have 20% all the way around on both my truck and the wifes car. Highly illegal here but I have never been ticketed for it in the 5 years I have had it on my truck, and she has been hacked up for it once in the 6 years the tint has been on her car.

A lot depends on how they enforce it in your area. The only place in Texas I have ever been pulled for dark tint is Dallas - Twice.

I got pulled over 3 times in one day in Waco one time in my old 88 dodge for having 15% all the way around. Besides that day though I have never been bothered about my tint.

Got pulled over for it once here in NYC. Other than that I've been just fine.

20% has been good to me. I can still see out during the night, but takes down on the suns intensity.

Good Luck!
