That dress is too big on her. Nice tints though.

If you look closely, so are the shoes. But overall, she was very yummy!

When I had my tints done they only said light, medium, or dark. So of course I picked dark as you can see. Later, I found out after getting pulled over by a lady cop and checking my tint % it was supposely 12% Also, I did the brow strip on the front since the tint shop threw it in for free. Helps block the sun glare quite well.

Anyway enjoy!

Additional post, I have 30% tint all the way around and a 4.5 inch visor strip across the windshield at 5%. Nice during the day can be a little dark at night. Different states have different tolerances so you may want to ask the tint people when making your choice.

I'm getting my windows tinted, but I was curious.. is anyone having a problem when the tint is fresh (because you shouldn't put windows down for 24-hours) and opening the door, since the window pops down every time you open it? It annoys the **** out of me.

No, but there is a rubber piece inside the front part of the door that your installer MUST get the tint on the inside of or else you will have the same peeling issue that a lot of people are having. As far as the auto seal, it shouldn't matter if tint is installed correctly.

I'm planning to go 15% all around. Anyone have trouble driving in the night or anything? Any tickets?

"A 2 Z" that's really dark, especially for MD. A fix-it ticket is just a matter of time for you
Here is what 35% 3M tint all around looks like on mine. Can perfectly see at night all the while being ninja shadow to others; still hang back when I see the police cruisers... precautionary step.
