I just tinted the tC on Saturday I went for 35% mine looks lighter than those pics. I hate driving around with dark tint up here in the rain, or night time, it is hard for me to see. When I was in Cali I would always go for the limo tint.
Sometimes there will be bubbles right after the tint is done, but they can smooth it out. Just make sure you go back to have it fixed.

i wish some company would perfect the "auto-tint" films... the stuff that gets darker or lighter depending on brightness... that would be the best i think.... dark durring sun... and lighter (not clear) at night

Looks tight. I want to get my done, but I'm not sure about how dark. I want to be able to see out the windows at night. In Illinois you can't "legally" have any tint on the front sides and I'd rather not be hassled by the cops. Any suggestions for a light tint that would be worth the effort, but not attract too much attention?

Its 20% all the way around... except the windshield... he tinted over the dot matrix he took his time on it though... something about heating and removing air so it gets right up to the circles or the lines... I also has a nasty bubble on my passenger window... I took it back he replaced it.. Great place to go!

The current Washington law on tint has been suspended last I heard, because it was written poorly. There is confusion on how the % is read. Is it how much light is blocked, or how much light can come through the tint. So if you have 20% tint does that mean it blocks 20% of the light, or does it let 20% of the light in.
I don’t know about Illinois but in California as long as you have two side view mirrors you can tint the back portion of the car as dark as you want. The biggest concern is that the cops want to be able to see what’s going on in the car. When I use to live in CA I got pulled over once and had the darkest tint on the back windows, the cops put two flood lights on my car to be able to see inside. They still walked up with their flash lights so they could see me.

I love annoying people sometimes when I want them out of my way by getting my head lights to hit their side view mirror. Gotta love the Piaa’s!!
