what % are those? Mine has factory tint on the back and rear not sure what the % is on factory, hoping its 35% because I'm putting 35% on the fronts, which is the max I can put on in nc. Looks real good!

Looks awesome! It was just what your truck needed, IMO.

Looks pretty close to mine. I didnt have my truck 3 days before the windows were tinted. Im at 20% on the fronts. The fuzz doesnt bother you here unless its less than 10% .... or unless they are bored so they try to nail you for anything they can.

All I know is its cheaper to pay the ticket than to get the windows retinted.

Factory tinted windows are exempt from inspection. If it came on the car from the factory, it is already DOT approved. If you put a layer of tint over it, then you may have an issue.

Thanks Guys. I am not sure what the % is I had the guy match the backs. In NJ it is illegal to have the fronts tinted. So far they have left me alone I guess we will see. good thing is I have 2 years before inspection.
