If you are in/around SE PA (I see the OP is in Delaware) I'd recommend SSC Tint in Elizabethtown PA (Lancater/York/Harrisburg area).

The owner/installer is Mike Snyder. He's an autocrosser, and a friend of mine. He did my truck and my Mustang both and they are perfect. And he uses high quality tint, not junk. http://www.ssc-tint.com/contact.html and feel free to tell him Sam Strano sent you, and... he's not a crack-head.

double layer of 5%??? AND 20% on the windsheild???

Is it possible see anything out of your windows during the DAY, let alone at night? Also, does your state have any tint laws?

Very much so, everyone thinks "OMG you cant see anything blahblah" but with HIDs you don't know that the windshield is even tinted, and the sides arn't much worse then single layer 5% seeing out.

And state law is no darker then 68% on the fronts, no restrictions on the back and nothing below the ISI line....

It is very illegal, and to come off not sounding like an ***(really not trying to be) you have to sit in the car and drive it to really think its tinted. It may be dark in but out isnt much of a change over stock.

So drug dealers drive cars with all the windows dark tinted? Maybe you should tell the cops that so thay can add that to the list of stereotypes. While you at it let the junkies know thats the guy they can get their stuff from. Your "don't take this the wrong way" comment doesn't mean when perfectly innocent people catch holy hell because of the car they drive, the clothes they wear, or the color of their skin. People with your attitude scare me. BTW don't take this the wrong way.

I was joking. also.. teasing someone about tint is far from some kind of " car they drive, the clothes they wear, or the color of their skin".. calling me racist because you have to have dark a$$ tint is more then retarded..

btw most drug dealers do have really tinted windows so people cant see in the car.

people that think they can do what they want and act how ever they want scare me..
