Just be careful, Illinois doesn't allow tint on front side windows, and and only 6" from the top on the windshield. I don't know how strict the cops are over there. Not to be a killjoy, but rather an informational source.

The car looks KEWL!!

So now I have a better understanding of window tint shades.

20% is darker then 35%. So what is limo tint? Like a 5%?

Yah limo is 5% but remember that the interior color has a lot to do with it also. If you have a lighter interior like I do then the tint will not look as dark. In my sig it looks dark but it isnt that dark and I have the same shades.

thanks for looking out rysZ34, i did know that law, the cops from my area dont really hassle that much on tint as long as its not too dark.

rj- You're right on the percentage part. I'm not completely sure what limo tint is, but it probably is in the ballpark of 5%. The % that the tint is rated at, is the amount of light that is able to pass through it. So for example, 35% is a lighter tint when compared to 20% because it will allow 35% of the orginal light to pass through the tint.

You have a super looking Monte Carlo 4-Sure.
