Default New 35% Tint - Pics

Finally got a break in the rain to wash my truck. Couldn't go darker due to state laws and Wa state doesn't believe in street lights. I think it looks good. Now I need to figure out what theme I'm going with. Can't decide if I want to go with black or chrome accessories. Not sure what will look good with the chrome package. Any suggestions?

Back windows are 20% and Wa state law says 35% and the cops around here don't need reasons to pull you over plus too dark.

BTW removed the "4x4" stickers as well

the front windows will always look lighter unless you use 5%. with the windshield not tinted and the rear window tinted, the front windows will always look lighter unless 5% is used. in that case 5% reduces almost all light transmission. what you are seeing in the pic is all the light being let in by the front windshield.

btw, imo, you should go dark and not chrome. i think dark looks good on dark colors like black and gray. chrome looks good on vibrant colors such as red and flame blue. just my .02.

I would go with a black and chrome mix not completely black an not chromed out the right balance between black an chrome on your truck would look sweet

you shoudn't have a problem putting what you want on the front windshield. you have to find someone that will do it. of course, tickets may follow as well. but i have known people to do it. you have to cut out for your registration/inspections stickers though. expect to pay a pretty price b/c its illegal. most tinters won't due it b/c it will jeopordize their jobs.
