20% all around on black on black G37S wow

Guy in va beach, va showed me at the shop what 35% would look like (legal in va) and I was like no way that's a waste of money... he then showed me a altima with 20% all around... I liked the 20% (not legal) becuz I could still see in the altima... So I went with 20% all around.... When they were finished and I got to see the car I thought they had thrown 5-10% on the joker lol....

To all u folks out there with black on black I would have to say 20% should be the max!

And for people wondering how much I paid... I paid $180.00 for all around 20%! They did a excellent job and told me not to roll the windows down for 2 days.... I always got lifetime warranty as long as I have the card in my wallet lol... u gotta remba that tint is illegal in Va hint( under the table job)

if you going to tint the car might as well go with 15%... any lighter and theres not point of having tint.

Hey I was just wondering if any of you who have the navigation went with metallic tints. I went the other day to the tint shop to get a quote and he was saying that the metallic might interfere with the navigation. It made sense on what he was saying so I was just wondering if anyone had any issues with that. I was thinking of doing 20% all around, but I'm in L.A. Cali
and that's not legal here and the cops are **** about it. I want a greyish color tint instead of just black. He was saying do
35% on the sides and 20% in the back.

It's called cash and carry I use to get the same percentage tint when I lived in Virginia but I got stopped at least once every year but I would just pay the fine and keep my tint.

I plan on getting my G tinted today. I had legal tints on my IS350 (white on black) and it looked pretty dark. It seems like everyone on here is doing 20% or lower...I am undecided if I should go the legal or 20%. Any more opinions?

Thanks

It seems like the tint level is in the 90s for the tint level but I don't know. Not sure if anyone on here will. Hopefully a dealer can answer this or a tint guy.

I think im going to do IF i do, 15 in the rear and 20 or 35 in the front. Cops are **** and i really don't need to get pulled over for Tint. that is the last thing i need especially if i go Twin Turbo
