Front Window tints to match the back?
I am looking to tint my front windows with the same style tint as the back ones. I am not looking for the common "black out" look, but if thats all that is available I guess I will go with that.
What I am really looking for is the mirrored finish of the back two. If this is possible I am all ears. How much would it cost to get it professionally done? Because I am pretty sure they can do a much better job than me. If any of you have tinted your windows and have some insight feel free to post some pics!

well the back two windows from the factory are tinted about 18%, so if you get 15% on the front windows then it will match really well since more light is let in in the front of the cab. tinting your windows that dark is also illegal so you might get a ticket for it.
factory tint isn't mirror tint so im not sure what you meant by that. any normal tint should look like the rear windows. you should be able to get it professionally done for 70 bucks or less.

Really? I dont know if it is just the 97s but the back two windows of my extended cab are not tinted black they have more of a lighter or silver mirror like finish. I only ask this because I have seen tints that are straight black and I am looking for something different.

Just a word of caution; I tinted the front windows of my 02 Scab to match the rears (it was just regular black tint). It gave the truck a nice, uniform look, and I really liked it...until I drove it at night. I had a hard time seeing out the side windows, and actually had to roll down the driver's side to see while I was backing into my driveway~a real PITA during winter and rainstorms.
