All in one tint did it, he did an amazing job!! Legal on the sides, 20% rear, front 20%. He comes to you, Highly recommend him. I watched him work, real precise. I'l post couple pics in a bit. You get a discount if your recommended from someone.

 

 

It looks good, I want mine done also. Too bad I give cops enough dirt to pick on me already with what I have on my car.

 

Nice, Jason... i bet it makes a big difference from the Hawaii sun

 

Looks good....hopefully you don't get caught though. $287 is a hefty fine.

 

Yep....Looks good...But I just went to court for illegal tint.....Mine were at 27.6% or something like that. It was either change tint back to legal spec or pay a fine that was damn near $1000.

 

The rear is the only window thats not legal, so hoping cops wont notice.

 

Legal tint in hawaii is 35%....good luck

 

Heard it's +/- 6% so you could get away with 29%

 

What i meant by legal on sides is, sides are 35. Rear is only one thats 20

 

does the tint standard apply to if you have reg and plates from another state?

How bad are the popo here on tint? Am I going to have to have it removed?
shait!

My car is what ever is just below 28% which is what is legal for florida. I also have the entire front window tinted as well.

I have seen a crapload of cars here on the island that have dark tint.
