Go to car boutique in Wheeling or Schaumburg and ask for Bill the tinter! He does the best work I've ever seen!

Thanks. I will do that. I am thinking about going 30% on the front windows, and 20% on the back. Do you guys think it's OK?]

It comes down to personal taste. I liked the 35% all around because it was dark enough to enhance the looks of the car, help with the sun, but not too dark to attract the wrath of the law. I don't like 2 different shades of tint on my cars.

What about 30% all around? Is that too dark as far as Cops are concerned? Does anyone has that?

I had 30% in the front and 20% in the back, and thought it looked too dark and rather ghetto on my car. But that's my taste.

I now have 30% all-around and it looks good.
