Went 5% ceramic tint all around, Side and back are pitch black because they already have privacy glass, I think it looks amazing. Went with a clear windshield tint to protect the dash and keep it cool all around!

If you are in the OC area I recommend going to Tint Crew in Buena Park!

May I ask how much did it cost you? How long did it take? I'm in the Los Angeles area.
Is 5% too dark at night driving?

Thanks.

with the front windshield it was $680 that’s with 88% IR protection 100% ceramic. They have cheaper options but the IR rating lowers which is what keeps the heat out.

Without windshield it would have been $450 got a cash discount.

I can see just fine at night and specially with all the camera angles parking is a breeze.

That looks really good! I'd like to do that, but in my state, they won't let you do 5% all around. I'm sure I could find some tint dealer that would probably do it, but then I run the risk of a ticket. Does your state allow 5% or are you just taking the risk? I mean if you get a ticket, it's not a huge fine and the tint can come off. Just curious. I'd love to do 5% tint, but doubt I could get away with it too long.

In California, I believe it has to be 70% or higher for front windows. Can it be removed easily if one gets a fix-it ticket?

I live in California! OF COURSE ITS ILLEGAL lol. But they usually don’t mess with you and if they do it’s just a fix it ticket.

I think it looks awesome but I would be worried that it would give the police an extra reason to pull you over. Here in Virginia I believe they cannot stop you just for that but if you do make a minor traffic infraction that they may otherwise ignore, with the excessively dark tint up front it is an officer safety issue that some take a bit more seriously than others. That said, I've had vehicles with dark tint all the way around with no issues, other than me worrying that I was asking for trouble. But again, it looks great and you will most likely never have any issues with "the man."

I would be more worried about insurance coverage if you get into an accident at night. Lawsuits happen all the time, windshield visibilty is important.
