Its amazing how much better a car can look with tint. How much did it cost you? Did they give you a warrenty?

Yeah the MD limit is 33% I think. But our suburban has 15% stock. so I think 20 should be ok for me, considering I do have to drive at night a lot.

I think its 25% tint? It looks nice! Hopefully you don't have any **** cops around in Long Beach.

I went w/ the 35% tint since here in CA we can only tint the windows that are BEHIND the driver...

I am getting mine tinted tomarow at D&G Coustom for 170 with full waranty on tint and labor. I am going to go with the MD limit of 35% I wanted to go darker like 15 or 20%, but at least I won't have to worry about taking it off and wasting all that $ if a cop pules me over. It really sucks because with a SUV or van you can go a lot darker!
