    Has anyone tinted their windows dark for a cab? Haven't seen pics of a cab with the top down and dark tinted windows up...

    los angeles here too,
    i did 35% on my arctic/black interior,
    looks too dark to me wish I had done 50%.
    the black interior does make a huge difference in making the tint appear darker... i have posted pics here with my tint and aerokit you can search for them

    I'm in Carlsbad and did 17% all the way around. It is not too dark and I am not worried about the law. Knock on wood it has never been a problem before and it really adds to the look of the car.

    Did 20% on mine. Not too dark, and still easy to see out of at night.

    Nice dark tint me-thinks gives the car an added aggressive appearance great colour SG is, my second favourite apart from black
