Default Debating on tint and suggestion on a good tint shop?

I had window tint on my Acura TLs before. I went with 20 in the back and 50 only on the front side windows. I got lucky and I did not get pull over for the tint, but I always got a second look when I pass by cops.

Now with this 06 GS300, I am debating on the tint. I have black on black and it will look great with tint. But this time, I am only thinking 35 in the back and still go with 50 on the front side windows. Yes, I know lots of people don't like the '2 color' look (ligher on the front), but I really don't want to draw any more attention from cops than it is.

Any good tint place around Balitmore area? Smitty had suggested a place before but I couldn't find it. (sorry, smitty) I had 3m film before, and I am open for other suggestion. Thanks

Are you in PA or MD?

I've never had a tint job that I was extremely happy with, honestly...so I can't refer any one.

Exclusive, Thanks for the offer. But it's a hike for me to get up there. Any other suggestion?

Well, since no one help me here. I did some research on my own. I've decided to go with ceramic film and I like Huper Optik ceramic. I got in contact with the head office and got the name of our area distributor. He had suggested three: one in philly, one in frederick, MD, and also TooIntense in Waldolf.

After we got into discussion a bit more, he asked me if I were planning on going to NYC or any chance in going into NYC. I do. In fact, we usually go up for a weekend during summer time. He suggests that I should look into "The Art Of Tint". He said he is one of the best in the country! www.theartoftint.com

I called and spoke with Tom. I'll be planning a trip to go to NYC to get it done.
