Window Tint

I am going to Fresh Designs Inc on Saturday to get 20% tint put on my car. I can't wait to see how it looks. I will post up some pics when it is done.

That is what I have heard. I didn't have any problems with it on my last car so I hope they leave me alone with this one. I will just have to make sure that I put my windows down when I see them coming.

yea..been pulled over bunches of times for no plate on the front.finally gave in...less hassle..and clear glass for me..but lets see the pics

I have a front plate so that won't be a problem. I will try to get some pics tonight or tomorrow. The camera battery is charging now.

yeah... ive been pulled over 4 times for no front plate.

I just put a new front bumper and paint on my car and have not been willing to drill hole in the bumper cover for the plate mount. What is the fine for no front plate? Any other issues?

I heard that the law that requires the front plate is being repealed in October, but the State Police are fighting it.

fine is $70-ish.

Pics as requested of the 20% tint:

look awesome! thats the same percentage i want!

Thanks. Check out Fresh Designs Inc in Ellicott City. They did it in 45min to an hour and the price was the best I had found in the area. Great guys there too.

if you dont mind me asking, how much was it?

Paid $165 and has a lifetime warranty. Every other place I called wanted $200 plus.

lifetime warranty? thats pretty damn good. i know D&L up near me has a warranty as to where if you get pulled over with illegal tint you just take it back to them and they'll take it off and put on 35%

Lifetime as in if it bubbles or peels or things like that they will replace it, but since it is illegal it is my responsibility if I get pulled over.

yeah thats the only reason d&l is an option. but for 165 i may end up doing that...

Just get Merci (Tint Lady) from MCOM to do it for you, $125 and that includes the mole skins, she does great work, She did mine, James, Bob's, Pete's and bunch others, get a hold of BobT and he can hook you up

+1 for Merci. She did mine and they came out great!!!

ill keep that in mind. not going to tint my windows until after i paint my car!

I know I'll get crap, but I have to play devil's advocate. Merci did my tint, and I'm not too happy with it. Bubbles along the edge, and even a hair in the middle. Given, it was the end of the night, and she did stick around for me, but I believe if you are going to do a job, you should do it properly or not do it.

I will have my new car tinted by Merci again, came out great on my v6 so I'm not worried. Bethel just tell her and she will redo it!
