if anyone wants a good deal on tint, PM me if you are SERIOUS about doing it in the next 1-2 weeks. I get a great deal at Shades. Maxx has seen me there many times, and I give them alot of business. My windows were done there, EMSWRX, Code-7 & Original 337 from the AK Motorsports Board also.

i went to shades as well, I did have some issues with the tints coming off, but they quickly replaced them under no charge. Goods guys to work with too.

I think they are moving their shop soon, over near Lake Otis and Dowling (maybe a couple of streets over):)

"1) the glass immediately in front of the driver may have a
strip of tinting material applied to the top edge, known in the industry as
an "eyebrow," which does not extend downward more than five inches from the
top of the glass;
(2) the windows immediately to the driver's right and left
may have tinting material that permits at least 70 percent light
transmittance;
(3) the rear door windows, quarter glasses, and back glasses
may have tinting material that permits at least 40 percent light
transmittance;"

so 70% up front, 40% on back...this is what the statute says anyways...

But if you have any factory tint on your windows (which most cars with AC do), and get your windows tinted to those levels you will be past the legal limit when they test you. So if you get a cop that is an a-hole, then you will still get a ticket.

But I have found as long as you stay away from the strip you are probably OK.
