Whoa! That looks good. I gotta do that next. In Alberta, we're not allowed to tint the driver and passenger windows (doh!). You know, the 05 front end isn't that bad actually

Thanks for the comments all, since my '02 SiR has tint and I love it, I had to do it for my wife's new car... and she absolutely loves it. Our baby girl will also love sitting in the back seat and not getting the sun in her face:)Tinting was done at Ziebart and was $240 with a lifetime warranty.

Yeah, your '05 looks fantastic. I think the tint definitely helps.I had been debating tint for a while now..I have an inside track near me, and since Georgia just threw out all the tint laws, I can go pretty much as low as I want.. Most likely 30 in the front, 20 in the rear..It looks sweet!

Laws are meant to be borken...lol! Here in the Eastern region, they are not too picky about them as of yet. The 31% on the driver and passenger is legal, and the back windows can be as dark as you want.My '02 SiR has 21% for the driver and passenger, and in 2+ years I have not been bugged by any authority figures....
