Sooo... I've been trying to decide on a tint for my BSP... Im leaning toward 35%... or maybe a little darker. I was going to go with the 3M but no one in my area seems to tint with that... Llumar seems to be the trend. Does anyone have a preference between 3m and Llumar?

ALSO Im having an extra hard time trying to find a tint shop.. folks in Alabama don't seem to know what my car is.. Which makes me hella nervous... the person actually asked me if my "Ty-on" (as he said it) was the one that looks like a box...
Anyone know of any good shops in the Auburn area? Or am I going to just have to drive on down to Atlanta?

Heellpp?

Yeesh, I don't know thinkblue. I'd rather leave this up to the experts because if you fail? You and everybody lookin' at you in your car's gonna know.

Sweet bro, looks really good.

What do you guys think the lowest % I can go with (living in California) without the cops hassling me? Legal limit on the front passenger and driver sides are 70% but I want something around 40% or 50%, with the rear and hatch being somewhat lower.

i am in california.
My car is black.
I wanted to get dark in the back, and light in the front.
there is light, med, dark, limo shades.
on my last car i had Med in the back and light in the front.
but it still got hot and it looked okay.
i think i am going to get Dark in the back and Med in the front.
As far as legal issues, is it okay to tint as dark as you want in the back? i know the front is none at all.
also, would Limo in the back and med in the front look cool?
thanks
