    There is a shop near Mossy Ford in PB that I have used on 6 cars and haven't had any trouble with the product.
    Now, with that stated, when you see the BAJA and AZ folks with their limo tint all 'round... a mid grade tint is just right...

    i have 30% in the rear and 50% in the front.

    i think IL just recently passed a law okaying front tints, but i had mine done before the new law.

    50% in the front has kept the cops away

    Went to their web site and didn't see much in the way of pix. Does it provide any darkening of the windows?

    Yes,

    It tints the glass. Its just not dark or black. Hard to explain but the heat from the sun is greatly reduced. If you want heat rejection off your head. This is the stuff. Huper is a German company and there is ceramic in the film. Looks cool outside in the sun.

    Almost forgot to add

    Huper ceramic has a much higher optical clarity. At night when you're looking out......the windows are clear. Its hard to explain but from the inside the windows do not look dark. Its easy to see out and the image quality is clear. This was one of a main selling features. I hate looking thru dark tint at night. Lastly, in the day...same situation. Its not dark inside and easy to see out.
