I just did WINCOS Tint, 20% all the way around. I just wanted it to be uniform looking. IF it’s a huge issue passing inspection, I’ll return the front 2 windows. No big deal, but think I’ll be OK.
LOOKS dark in pics, or when suns down, but in. Kemal driving in sunny conditions it’s perfect.

Asking the dealership to tint your windows is that last thing you should do lol. There's plenty of reputable tint shops around NYC just search around man.

Why? They did my last car no problem. And I only want legal limit anyway. And of course I can search around, but I'd rather go somewhere that's recommended here!
i had an audi done at the dealer and it was one of the best jobs i've had since - and that car was a 2010 MY
plus - if they get too much water and fry a control in the doors etc. they will be covering it..

dealers usually do fantastic tint work because they have done the same car so many times - if price is competitive i would have no issues having it done at the dealership.

Many dealerships don't offer top of the line film and still charge the same amount if you were to get a ceramic film at a good tint shop.

I did 5% in the rear window (limo tint), and then 35% on all side windows. I then did 80% (basically clear) on my windshield to help eliminate heat build-up in my parked car.
I think it looks great.
