I live in in New York and I think that limo tint is illegal here .... i live in the city (brooklyn) so i dont know what is the maxium tinting percentage. If you would be on the safe side what percentage would you get?

I have an 02 S60. Mine is tinted to the legal Kentucky limit. Looks good, even though my car is white. I agree with Tech, almost any car will look better with tint, except maybe a Yugo.

I drive a black metallic 2002 C70 with tinted windows. I had mine tinted while stationed in Germany. The car looks awesome but the front tint now is illegal for the state of Texas. I was pulled over the other day and given warning for the second time. Looks like I"ll be replacing the front tint. Just make sure the tint is legal for your state.
