35% Lumar--20% in back

I am looking into getting this tint done on my silver cl...I assume this is the charcoal reflecty type tint.
anyone have pictures of this on a silver cl?
Also..
Anyone deal with Trek window tinting in springdale, pa? They quote a price of 295--which seems high to me....If I dont go there I may go with Shawns guy...but theres a wait for him :/ and I am looking to get this out of the way.

Springdale or Springfield? I know there is a Trek in SpringFIELD...Either way - They are good but overpriced...But they are the only ones in the area who have that charcoal reflective tint

Tint is ALWAYS cheaper in Florida, Texas, California and all the “sunshine states”.
Around here tinting is for the most part ILLEGAL and there’s not much competition so you’re gonna pay a bit more for a quality job.

Splitting percentages on the SIDE of the car is bad, but REAR to SIDE is just fine.
Plus I’m less likely to get pulled over.

20% on the SIDES will get you in trouble while 35% on the REAR is too light.
Mine is the perfect combo for a state that has restrictions.

Shawn your car looks awesome but IMHO I think the charcoal llumar may look better on a SILVER CL. I f I had a darker color it would be different. I will definitely go with 20 %. I think I will pay the 295...much as I hate too he did say he would do the dots as well and they seem like a quality organization. Plus I believe Lumar cost more.
