Welcome again. The car doesn't look bad. I also like the stripe at the bottom and good luck with any mods you end up doing.

I would check with your local state laws regarding the tinting because each state is different. I think most are around 20% for front windows and anything for the rears but again check your local laws. I think there was also a thread which had them all but I still need my coffee before I search that for you...lol...use the search button for this because it has been discussed countless times before.

whatever your doing thats so illegal you don't want people to see... you should probably stop... IMO.
i had mine barely tinted. You could still see through both sides, at night. I got pulled over, because any tint on the front windows in NY is illegal. You WILL be pulled over for illegal tinting, eventually. So don't do it, unless your doing a legal level |

damn paint looked good till got to the front with it shedding..
Never been pulled over or a comment made on my tint when pulled over for other things. But did get in trouble for shaved doors and taillights. I have 2.5% tint cant see in in the daytime back window doesnt have tint right now had to take it out couldnt stand it prolly redo back with 20% then 30-35 on front with a 2.5 or 5 sunshade at the top of the window.

Ya I used to drive a grand prix with limo tint. Got tickets several times. It was on there before I got it so it really sucked and its not cheap. I think it stood out more because the car was white.
