There is NO legal tinting in CA unless it's a clear UV ray blocker... no darkening. And double limo is as dark as it gets.

Re: Super TINTING???

In Iowa ive gotten pulled over for about every different percent of tint 50, 35, 15, and 5% tints. (legal limit is 70%, see-through), Ive come to the conclusion that no matter what percent of tint you have the cops are going to give you **** about it. So finally i went with 35% on the windshield, 35% sides and 5% back hatch......

LLumar is about the best tint you can get, its pretty dark in comparision to other tints of the same percentage. I think beckhart? is right up there with llumar tint

2 1/2% is the darkest that I know of which is what is on my car. Someone can be in it with the passenger door open in the middle of the day and you cant see them. I have to roll them down sometimes at night.

You can double up on tint if you do it correctly to make it really dark. Of course it will be illegal though.

For the record, the CA law for tint is any darkness on the rear windows as long as you have both side view mirrors, NO tint on the front side windows, and only the top 6" of the windshield is allowed.
