Your truck looks great, for some reason the factory 20's look better on your truck than any others I have seen.
Nice job!

Most places you can sign a waver and they will tint anything you want if you got the green. I have rode in a G-wagen at work that had a 20% front window and it really isn't bad at all. Looks dark as hell from outside, but with his having 35%, it probably isn't too bad. Good lookin truck! Very clean, almost looks like a true HD at first glance. Something that would go well with your black/chrome setup is a set of black lincoln LT handles! You would only need 3 to complete the job so it wouldn't be too pricey either. I have custom true blue ones on mine (check the sig).

Pretty sure it was on Champaign. I was heading south on Dix and saw those bad boys downed. It's hell to get over to Fort St. from there because of the train tracks!!!

I have been dealing with my local tint guy for around 15 years. He just doesn't give me a receipt if he has to do something illegal.

As Matt said earlier it really looks dark from outside simply becasuse it doesn't let light in. It's really not any difference from inside the cabin.

truck looks great man, real clean, smooth. and i have 35% as well, and it doesnt hinder night driving at all...

dzervit, im out in madison heights if you want to check out 35%, it isnt bad from inside at all. or, if you want to TRY and chuck a brick through my windshield and see how that one works out, lol (which, if you ask me, as MUCH more dangerous than tints on a windshield)

I've got 20% on my front windows to match my rear windows, but tinting your front windsheild is just crazy talk and foolish in my eyes. The bimmer that used to be in my driveway had a 50% tint all around (except the windshield of course) and I wouldn't even dream of putting a 50% on the front glass. It's just foolish for night driving and can be dangerous. Thank god I don't visit MH that much at night!!!

And if you ever have a brick through your window... uh... er.. it wasn't me.
