    OP, Your truck looks real good!

    Different laws in different states. For example in FL you can make the front windows as dark as you want. In my communist state, CA, it's illegal to tint the front windows unless you have a note from your doctor.

    Well in south Carolina the cops don't really care to much about the tint seems like everyone in know has illegal tint and now problems !! But if I ever do get pulled over for it I am going to have the windows down before he or she gets to the car and if all else fails professional curtsy :) I hope but I am happy with it

    Thanks for the reminder. I was thinking of doing mine (we sort of get away with 35% but not really). I also have to see the eye doctor this week. I'll have to ask him about that because I have to wear transitions.
