Best looking Tint?
Wanted to know what type of tint and % everyone thinks looks best on a Black CL?
Also, I live in the Northern Virginia Area and am looking to get some tint put on my windows, anyone know of some good local shops?

Also, if anyone has some pictures of some window tints on a Black CL they would be appreciated. Please identify the tinit information though. Thanks!

zero percent would mean 0% sunlight will pass through, hence it would just be straight black and not tint at all

for a black car, black tint looks the best imo. i have a black cl and i plan on getting tint too, but not sure about what percentage because it might affect my driving at night. good luck

with my limo tints, it is impossible to see out at night. I have trouble backing out of parking lot so i always roll down the windows so i can see the mirrors. That's how dark it is at night.

I doubt it would look good with two different percentages of tint, 50% and 35%, I think it would just look better with 35% around....Anyone have this %?

Thanks for the advice, sounds like a reputable tint shop, the kind I like. Have you had any problems with cops and tickets for to dark a tint?

Anyone have any pictures of their tint going over the dot matrix in the back window? Also, any pictures of tint not covering the dot matrix?
Opinions, in Virginia, the tint laws are 35% and 50%, should I get the different tints or get 50% all around?
Thanks.

Go ahead and darken the windows....
I have 35% all around on my black cls and I drive through VA often and never have been pulled over. I think if you are a ricer (loud noise exhaust) or your car is too flashy cops will find any good excuse to pull you over with tints below the legal limit. I have always had illegal tints on my cars, however, I never got pulled over. I think if cops have nothing to do, is when they will actually say something....
Go ahead and get the same tint all around. Lighter color cars, look tacky IMO with different shades of tint all over the windows.
