    Tint is basically illegal in california, only the rear may be tinted at like 70%.

    Thats the law anyways.

    Mine was tinted 28% side/20% rear, looks great, was done in FL. Haven't gotten a ticket, going back to FL before I do :D

    Most mirror tint is 100% illegal, and I think it doesn't look as stealthy as charcoal/black tint - plus it isn't as durable. Do what you want, most places that are good will do anything you want for cash - that way the police cant trace the tint.

      Don't do mirror on a black car it looks like *** . In my oppinion all mirror tint does even on silver cars. I was gonna do it to mine but decided no because of the black tops and the trim around the back windown.

          I don't like the mirror look, but that's just my opinion. Maybe I'll change my mind in a few years.

            This is the best pic I have of the tint. I have the mirror tint and then a 15% behind it. So it reflects light and is dark at the same time [img]smile.gif[/img]

              Me too! I want mine to have absolutly zero light showing through, do you have any ideas? I was thinking put 5% black on first, then the 5% mirror on next (mirror side facing down inside the car). I was also considering using a black spray paint-type stuff that is used for blacking out brakelights when off, but when on the light shines through. How are you doing this? Shoot me an email Iceman5359@hotmail.com
