    $150 to do 20% (ceramic) on the two front windows. They wanted $120 to do it "legally", which wouldn't have come close to matching the rears.

    Has anyone done the brow? My quote said they would have to take off the go pro mount on the brow.

    Jeeze that's a little extreme. When i was stationed in Camp Lejeune in NC the MP's were the exact same way. Montana no one cares what you do

    Mostly Stock for now, 265 75 16 Falken AT3W, Tinted fronts...
    I paid $80 for front two, also in VA. I think they had 3 levels and I got the middle. I found prices up to about $120 for front 2 if I remember correctly.

    it's been nuts here lately. I've used the SAME guy and the SAME tint on 9 different trucks since
    2000, have been through traffic stops, both cousins are cops, one is a Trooper and never have
    I had anyone look twice at it - you can see into the cab and clearly see everything in the console
    so it's not "dark" by a long shot. He actually called it "dangerously dark" :D and said he needed to
    follow me all the way to my office, just to be safe so I could avoid further tickets. I laughed a bit
    and said exactly what I said above to him, he said, I still need to follow you. The bitch of it is even
    removing it doesn't wipe the ticket.... you still have to pay even if you show them proof it's gone.

    Crazy! In Lejeune they would rip the tint and ticket you. A bunch of cops probably just got trained on the tint reader and probably testing it out...

    I got lucky and made my dealer include front tint in the deal, but I've paid $200'ish for all past cars for 5 windows.

    I should have introduced that into my deal, I wasn't even thinking about it. I was too damn excited to get behind the wheel.
    Jerzsubbie, you still loving the cement color?

    Most places quote me $80 for 2 windows lifetime warranty. Dealer is wanting $169 for 2 windows granted I don't know what tint they use.

    Absolutely loving it!!!

    Yeah I made my dealer mount/balance/align my new wheels/tires and tint the front windows, in addition to matching my low price from another dealer, in order to earn my business.

    Just checked your page and saw your Tacoma, Great job on it! The wheels/tires look great! I heard the LED might yellow the headlights, not sure if that's true or not

    Damn you should post a pic when you get a chance. Tried to see if you posted one elsewhere but couldn't find it. 5% is crazy dark
