In any case, he said it usually amounts to somewhere between 10% and 15%.) He said he had the 42% tint available and it would typically wind up still keeping you *just* below the legal tint limit (at least for here in Maryland). Even if it went over due to combining with manufacturer's original window tinting, it would only be 1%-3% over. So not enough to call any attention to it.
Mine is Pearl White though, not black ... so not sure if that's helpful?

The side windows are marked AS2.
AS2 factory VLT is 70-75%.
If your trying to stay legal and your state's limit 50%, you have to find out whether it's "50% total" or "50% film." They're different.
