Default Adding Tints to a lease

First Post.

Hello everybody this is my first post over here at CL. I just picked up a 2016 IS300 F-Sport, I've only driven various Audi's for the last 16years and I gotta say Im really digging the IS. I love the styling.

Anyway, I wanted to know if you guys have any experience with tints on a leased car? Audi never had a problem with it at turn-in but Im not sure about Lexus. Im planning on tinting to the state's legal limits so it wont be super dark. Any thoughts?

I tinted mine and it's a lease. As long as it's within the legal limits, there shouldn't be any problem when turning it in.

even if you do the entire car limo tint, you won't have any issues. You can even turn your car in with modifications on it if you please... but most people put it to stock and sell the mods.

Anything that adds value to the car should never be an issue.
