Window tinting recs for a '08 Royal Blue Pearl TL
Last week I bought a 2008 Royal Blue Pearl TL. Beautiful car, I love it so far but I would like to tint the windows. I just moved to Houston this summer. Anybody from the Houston area have a recommendation(s) for who I should go to for tinting & how much tinting I should have done?
Also, Murphy's Law came into play yesterday when I was parking & drove up on a high curb -- the result was I scraped/gouged the bottom lip pretty bad. You can't really see it but it annoys me. I'll probably just leave it but if I can get it changed out pretty cheaply I might just do it.
Thanks.

We shall find out today as I have court for my windows being too dark, and no license plate. I had 5% I bought the car like that but I went ahead and went 20% hopefully I will get my tickets dismissed

I have RBP too and went with 20% all around. Car looks awesome and I live in Atlanta where it gets super hot, just like Texas and it's a great help with keeping heat out. I wouldn't go any lower than 20% though, b/c then you start to sacrifice nightime vision. BTW, I went legal with 35% when I first moved to GA on another car and was SOOOO disappointed with how it looked, how there was no privacy and how it didn't help much at all with keeping the heat out. Just my .02. Nice choice in color though.

Thanks for the advice guys! I think 20pct would be as high as I would go...mainly trying to keep the heat out. I work in Galveston if there is an Acura meet there I'd love to get ideas.

TL Dude -- Negative on the Mexican Restaurant for lunch. I was on the Island today though....got stuck behind an accident Northbound on the Causeway that shut it down for 45 minutes or so. I work at the CG Base on the East End.
I saw a blue TL with a scratch on the lower front bumper with no tint and thought it was you. It was parked on 14th ST around noon.
