Drive to Jersey, go to Top of The Line in Lodi. Phil is the best, period.

Are you SURE you want it....
NYC is hard on crackdowns on tints. FWIW, I've gotten 4 tickets in the last 2.5 months.
U gotta pay to play so I'm no complaining.
But just bear in mind, that they are cracking down considerably making good coin.

For tint, call Tom over at theartoftint.com
He's down in the city or Sheepshead, Brooklyn (not quite sure if he still rents space at the same facility). The best and my 1st choice.

It's not the brand of tint that will make your tint job look good.

Any reputable decent tinter will do a great job based on what % you want and will offer a lifetime warranty on it to back that up.

Thanks for the response guys... yeah.. i contemplated the potential tickets and I am still up in the air. 35% in front with the stock tinted rear is dark enough to get a ticket?

Absolutely. Granted interior of the car does affect how it looks from the outside, as well as if you have moon roof open. With that said, I would have it no other way --- and would want tints on the front. Just be aware that anything short of stock glass is against NYC tint code. And their is definately huge ticket campaigns on this sort of thing.....

I hear ya... I just lost a case in court for making a left turn from middle lane..

For the Queens folks here are the details:
For yearssss... everyone makes a left from the middle lane on Atlantic Avenue going East on to Van Wyck going North. 90% of the traffic wants to turn there... 1 or 2 cars go straight...
Last Aug I got a ticket along with 7 other cars... Tried to fight it and lost.

The put up new signs and then enforced it to catch unsuspecting drivers.. To this day, everyone is still turning, city buses, garbage trucks... I guess when the city wants more $$$,, they just monitor that intersection and collect.


Just sucks that
