Default RX330 With 20% Tint (front windows)

I hate it. The tint guy said to match the back, I need to go with 20%. Getting it replace next week.

Is not 20% illegal in MD?

It will lighten up a bit over time, however, those with 35% who have posted pictures look to have a decent match.

It looks good, is it too dark to drive?

Yes, 20% is illegal in MD.

I can't wait to take it off. Doesn't look classy any more. 7-9 years ago this would be perfect.

Not really. When looking at side view mirrors with the windows up there is a reflection of the vents. That's the only thing that others me. I see the cars behind me and the air vents.

Thanks. If I didn't have bamboo pearl I probably wouldn't mind. Jut doesn't look good with this color.

20 is illegal in front windows. If you have light interior you may get away with it. If dark, you are inviting the po-po.

I have 20% on mine...breakwater blue with gray interior...honestly is lightened up some...but matched the rears perfectly. Sorry to hear that you aren't happy with your window tint. Hopefully you like the change.
