Default Getting TINT

Hey has anyone tinted the windows yet? If so how dark did you go? Post pics please. I have a white quad sport and I am unsure yet how dark to go.

i got 5% all the way around, its AWESOME in the day time and a little hard to see at night.

And its also good if you like to look at people in other vehicles because they cant see you lol

3M tints come in gradients from 70 to 5 (the darkest). 5 allows only 8% of visible light through.

Iowa tint laws suck. The limit is 70.

Bounty, 3M makes 70? I could not find anything above 50 when I did the old car. I also got pulled over for it too.

I'm not sure what the % is but I just had mine tinted and I told them to match the back...it must be 5% at least that's my guess. I'll post pics tonight.

How much did you pay for the tints? Ive been quoted between $80-$100 for the front 2 windows. Seems high to me.
