    I'm looking to do 35% on my front windows of my 03 double cab. Can anyone tell me what tint to buy where it will be a close match to the factory tint in the rear windows? Its a brownish bronzish color in the back but couldn't find it anywhere at local stores. Thanks!

    You need to go to a business that tents windows. They can help you.

    If you look at it from the inside it seems like it would be hard to match. It's not gray or blue. Almost looks like a light brown/tan color :notsure:

    Tinting windows is cheap, and you have to look at it ever time you get in your truck, so I'd highly recommend dropping the <$75 it should cost to do the two front windows to match the back at a quality tint shop.

    It is legal in the state you live in??

    Here it is not some officers can get quite upset having you remove it along the side of the road or have you get the vehicle towed.

    That was not a good day expensive as well
