They would only put 40% (legal is 35 in NC) since they said there is some factory tinting and it would meter illegal. Since NC does charge for and meter at the annual inspection, they wouldn't do darker. I would have preferred darker, but it's not a huge deal for me.

I didn't think to remove the sticker but thankfully the tint shop did. Also the put a 4" scratch right by the gas tank. I was LIVID!!! It really doesn't appear to be too bad, nothing that a detail shop shouldn't be able to buff out (on the shop's tab of course). But still!!!!

$400?!??! and 40%?? and they put a scratch in your car?? i got 20's at a legit place for $150. I would rather not even tint my windows then have to get it done 40%, that's like nothing.
