FL guys, esp central, tint question...
Friday, March 09, 2007 7:05 AM
ok folks, myself and a freind are looking into tinting our cars, but have a couple questions. what % tint do you have, and what kinda hassles have you had from the cops? i know 28% front and 15% side and rears are legal limit, but im thinkin 20% all around looks best...

thanks in advance for any usefull input...

ok, so i finally got around to 2 of the tint shops in my area. one quoted me $125 the other $135, which i thought were good prices. however when i asked them about doing 15% they both said the same thing...cash only, no warranty, no receipt....WTF??????? is that normal????

yea thats about right, cuz legal is 20sumthin%. But you wont really have to worry about it too much, and that is a good price, is that just for the 5 windows or the front sun stripe too?

legal is 28% front driver and passenger, and like 20% all others, i think. both places were $10 more for the windshield stripe. and yes the prices were for all the side and rear windows.

If you come to tallahassee. Most of the shops around here will put on what ever you want with no problems. Now i think about it my car may have 15% or 5% on it.

i went back to one of the shops and got too look at some samples they had one the front window. they said thier darkest geal package is 30% on the front windows, 15% on the rear and back window. i got to take a look at a caddy in the lot with that package on it too. the difference between the 2 shades is hardly noticable. that package with a lifetime warranty is $129.99, so i made an apointment to have it put on. ill put up some pics in a couple weeks when it gets done and i get some pics taken.
