if u are not worried about cops and pulling u over.. i would black em out... i got silver one and tinted at 2% limo tint. its bring out more class to your car and looks mean and lean lol... where im at front should be 50 percent lol but i don't care. good luck

you should definitely black them out. The darker the better but as Mike said if you think you might get in trouble with cops,get a lighter tint.

Love the matted look. Change the front headlights to smoked projectors and your set!

Laws for tint in cali is none on windshield or both front windows. As long as its not limo most cops won't trip most of the time, but it may give them excuse to pull you over if its 20%.
I've had 20% on all my benz's on the front and i live in a cop conjested area (LAX) hasn't been an issue for over 15 years.
Check out cermaic tint if looking for something of quality, its has unquie protection over the regular metallic tint. Its a bit glossier and comes in a range of colors, lambo yellow, matte black to follow your theme? Check it out was very happy with mine it cost more then twice as much $350-500 usually comes with a 10 year warranty as well vs 1-2 years for metallic.

cops in Fresno have nothing better to do then pull you over for tint, and the next question out of there mouth is have you been drinking, with my white CLK it was atleast ones every weekend when im out late. I was tinted 5 all around and 50 down the whole windshield, on this one im leaning towards like 5 on very back window and 20 or 35 down the side windows, and ill def look into the ceramic tint, seems cool!

i did it myself, along with my reflectors and turn signals. I really like it! It looks smoked but when you walk up to it and see the CF print it looks way cool so get the best of both worlds, its a pain in the *** to do that grill tho!

In VA, front its 50 and rear 45 but some cops are dicks.... some are cool as hell.. the cool one tells me as long as we can see your shadow, we are fine but some they go by the book and got nothing else to u even if u have 35% they will ticket u (even they can see the driver )and 35% is the same ticket as 2%.. so i chose with 2% my past 11 years. and im happy
