I'm feeling it. As long as you can drive comfortably, go for it. Definitely gives the IS a much more ominous, stealth look

the tint laws in AR are like any other state. the only reason i can get away with this is because the local police seem to not enforce the laws. like i mentioned before, 5 years and only one ticket. state troopers are the ones that are strict, and rightfully so. i worked at Mossy Toyota in san diego for a few summers while i had my solara and was lucky enough to never get a ticket. i did get stopped in inglewood and at LAX though. the out of state tags got me out of the ticket.

damn that's crazy, looks pretty dark from the inside too. I've been thinking about tinting my front but not sure what's too dark.

Dang! I get scared about getting pulled over with 35% - front. Your car wouldn't last long w/o a ticket in my town. Looks cool though....

Illinois is becoming increasingly excessive on ticket issuing for window tint. Their is a new WT license plate, but it requires well documented medical conditions in order to obtain. I miss having tint.

u gonnaget a ticket. hehe
I had a pathfinder with 5% all around and 20% on the front. I thought it was fine at night. then I took off the tint on the windshield and the difference was like going from crappy local cable to BLue RAY or DVD on a plasma TV. hehe

props to you man!!! i have 5% on everything except the front windshield. Plus im in socal so im already pushing it. But like you said about AR cops not really caring, orange county cops are pretty lax with tint laws. There have been many times where cops will be beside me at night and look at my car and then go back to their thing. Iv been debating a while to get my windshield done but i have enough trouble seeing at night as is haha.

WOW...Celeb Style...I want to see the inside of it when during the daytime. Is it possible to take a pic from the back seats facing forward with the doors closed? You should smoke out the headlights, fog lights, and tail light...be in stealth mode! Your leather must be in excellent condition.
