Tint almost done and HID headlights done. HID fog lights getting finished up as we speak.
Cost was expensive at $550 for everything but the shop is known for high quality custom work with lifetime warranty on all installs.

$550 sounds high at first but really its not that bad.

My tint was $230 installed. And I spend a total of $143 in parts for my LED fogs and HID kit. 230+143=373

Your 550-my 373=$177 and since I installed my fogs myself and will do my HID myself, that is the difference.

So really not a bad deal IMO, especially with the lifetime warranty and pro install.

Make sure you post some pics!!

I was thinking of tinting my windows as well on my black fit. Can you get some after pics from inside and outside of the tint? I was only thinking of doing 5% because I didnt want to hinder night visibility...

will post some pics in the next day or so... As for tint % you have to go in the oppisite direction with the numbers. The lower the number the darker the tint. 5% is almost limo tint dark and make night vision practically nonexistant in a dark area....
