It's the darkest I can legally get...I wish I could get it darker, but it's better than no tint at all.
that looks purdy... what percent tint is that?

You protect your interior, keep it cool, and people can't see inside.

It rocks when its hot out! Its a nice shade when the sun is low (late in the day/early in the day).

DIY for around $50 :exnbp:
