Just realize with 5% it's hard to see out at night on dimly lit roads. I almost hit people a few times when I had 5% on one of my old cars. I had 5% all the way around tho. Now I will never get darker than 20%

hmmm alright, i really just want the back side windows to be completely black, so the black outline thing on the windows matches the tint lol

My rear windows were done when I got the car, door windows had been removed prior for being too dark here. Tinted them to legal limit for around $60. I'm in Utah.


Also, it's window tint. There's no "s" on the end.

just make sure they can do the rear window matrix correctly. the place i went to convinced me it would be fine, but in order to get the 15% tint, they would not give me a receipt (because its illegal tint shade, and if i showed a cop the receipt they would have to pay my fine for applying it).

well, long story short, 2 weeks after the tint was applied it started to bubble up / come off the matrix part. looks like a 4 year old did it. and they wont re-do it because i didn't have a receipt... kind of a catch 22 on that one. lol.
