Thinking about tint
I stoped by one place I've heard does real good work to talked to someone real quick about tinting my windows. He said it would be $229.00 for my car with a lifetime warrenty. I also was informed that in Ohio 50% Front & 35% Rear is legal. I wanna keep the tint legal since I don't want a lame ticket/fine over that. So I want to know whats everyone opinion on if I did do 50% up front and 35% in the back would that look to mismactched? Also what else should I ask about before I get my tint done?

Well for starters remember not to clean your windows with a cleaner that has ammunia otherwise it will discolor.
Also I don't think 50% front and 35% rear would look mismatched. Most tints have brighter fronts than rears mostly due to laws and it still looks good.

I tinted mine this summer, 30% front and 20% rear, thinking "yeah lots of vehicles have darker rears than fronts," but i ended up being disgusted with it and took it back later to have it switched to 30% solid. It'* all in your opinion i guess.

hmm..... I gues I'll have to look up some pictures of others tints around the site to get a idea of how the different tint levels might look on my car. Also should I ask about covering my 3rd brake light or heck even go ahead and remove the rear deck so they can do the whole back window easier?
