Default Tint party at Tint King yesterday...

Took the A6 to Tint King in Billerica, Mass, for my first tint yesterday, just in time to get ready for next weeks's Waterfest. My cousin brought his new turbo-prop Aero.

Brian runs a tight shop. Trent and the rest of the crew did a phenominal job. I got the 50% LLumar Platinum tint - I live in a tint enforcement area.

Just waiting for the tint to "dry out" and for Tuesday's wheel swap for some before and after pics. : )

Default You could have gone up to 35% in MA...looks good though

I have 35% on front and 20% on rear windows and back windows...not legal in back..had some trouble getting a sticker, but got one after 3 places....never been hasseled by the police about it..have had it for 3 years. Now you need some smoked tail lights!

Default My wife was not a big fan of the idea (her car), so I figured I'd phase her in...

This metallic tint actually reads a little lower, so a 35% tint would read about 30%, a little too dark for a person with my driving record ; )

I've been hunting for smoked Hella's for a while, but following a lighter tint might just stick with the stock tail lights. They will match the rear window decal I am making nicely.

Default I went with the 50% as well. I like it; as,

it hardly interfers at night and if you do want more privacy. You just leave the shades up.

Regular smoked is $220, $200 if you mention AudiForYou. My metallic tint was $240.

Default Yes, I do a lot of highway driving as well and need to keep my eyes peeled...

Rear shade and a 50% tint is a perfect combo!
