$180. Also, its the highest grade tint from Madico. Metallic for better heat rejection.6speed said:How much?
You know, since it' illegal in the state of IllinoisDom418 said:Nice... I visited a tint shop today, just to *inquire*

kewl, but not dark enuff. U should have gotten 20% or something...mdaniel said:35% Madico Onyx (smoke finish) on 5 windows. the moonroof was closed but the sunshade was open for these pics. The back of the car was facing west at about 3:00.
Anything darker than 70% is illegal on the front two windows in CA. I like the uniform look so I'm not going to put dark on the back and light on the front. 20% on the front is asking for trouble. Ask Scott how many tickets he's had for tint. And night time visibility becomes a problem when you go that low.LIL RAJA said:

true true. But i guess I am just a dark side of the road. If it was up to me, I do my car with 5% tint. I don't like light much. I am a n8t person....mdaniel said:

I'm almost certain they send it out. Same with body work.Scorpius said:Do dealers do tinting? Or do they send the cars to tint shops they prefer?
What makes you say that?mdaniel said:

Because the dealer my dad bought his Acura from sent it out to have the tint done even though he bought tint as part of the deal. And when the dealer I got my 6 speed from scratched my trunk while installing the spoiler, they sent it to a body shop for repair. Dealer mechanics aren't trained as body men and window tinters. Easier to sub that stuff out than hire people to do it.Scorpius said:
