30% ceramic all around, plus strip on windshield. The windshield strip really helps out with the tiny sun visors. Tell them you want it to follow the roof line. It's harder, they might complain, but do it anyway. It looks much better than the straight line that looks curved up in the center when applied.

Thanks,, some of it came by accident. Really..Got hit from behind and knocked me into the car in front. Their insurance paid for front and rear, so I went ahead and did the skirts and arches..

they have the same rule in louisiana. you can get limo tint if you tell them you are allergic to the sun or have sensitive eyes

I have 20% on everything except the windshield. We're not allowed to have any tints at all in NJ, my PBA card has gotten me out of trouble so far..... Love having tints!

Decal instead of tint

Does anyone know where I can get the window decals instead of the full window tint? I have the British flag on the roof and I am looking for something similar for the back two side widows.

Can't wait to get my tint installed next month! I know it's gonna be a really good look on my PW/B.
IMO, any car looks much better with tint.
