What does somewhere around like 60-70% look like? I want to tint my windows but it's illegal in IL to tint the front windows, yet it's been 100+ here for a few days now.

Edit: actually does anyone know what the stock % is on the new GS? they're really dark compared to most stock vehicles

Just lucky I guess. That or the police in your area have better things to do than bust ***** about some tints. My main reason for tint was to protect my leather, not because I didn't want anyone to see me.

Tints are a necessity for every car in our family. I personaly cant survive without SOME tints.
I got 30% on my ES, and the LS. My Mustang as 5%/limo. and honda has 20%.

I like keepin luxury cars a little lighter tinted...i feel it gives a slightly more classy feel.

Thas my two cizzents.
