            when i got mine tinted they had tons of cool tints. i went with a metallic and reflective dark blue. looks so sick, especially when the sun hits it and it looks like a mirror. good thing is its not actually that dark looking out, but you cant see in. i love it. quite a bit more expensive than normal black tint, but well worth every penny of the 240 i spent. another cool tint ive seen is the black tint that fades to silver. very tight. just dont put those damn tint flames on there. those things look so gay and everyone around here seems to have them.

                  I think the state only allows 35% on the sides and 20% on the back. I am not sure of the cost. I haven't called around. Also, I know it varies state to state, but any one with windshield tint. The factory one doesn't have one.

                    i got 30% all around. wanted a more uniform look, rather than splitting the tint up. it's not very noticable from outside, but from inside the sun is definitelly having problems running people over with my car now. i guess i could have gone with 20% all around, but at the time i got em tinted, i was working in an area where 7 cop cars show up anytime someone gets pulled over, thats how bored they are. didnt wanna fuel the fire with too-dark tints.
                    oh and i paid $260 for mine, expensive ass neighborhood
