thanks yall. It's painted with VHT spray, so heat shouldn't be an issue.

Not too dark at all, but my opinion and law enforcement's always seem to be very different lol

No kidding. Ah well, all I can do is cross my fingers at this point. Around here the cops should be too busy with thefts and drug busts and overdoses to give a damn about what I do with my car. I hope.

Well the tint looks OK. Clear and buff as people have already said. I don't understand why you just didn't pull the damn things off the car to do this though.

Taz,

i have mine tinted very dark (compared to OP), never once did they chip/discolor...well that was until someone used a key on them...

i agree, removal takes all of 2 minutes...much easier to work with at that point.
