Tented Windows?

Hi again everybody, My dad works at Bushman Corp Reporting in downtown Little Rock, and their is a tinting shop right across the street. He got his Altima "92ish" tinted for 110$, i think thats a good price for 4 windows and his rear window. I want to get my truck tinted, 2 side windows with flappers, and rear window, and a Brow "think thats what it called" on the front windshield, how much do you think it will run me, also is their a closer place "im in GreenBrier" That can do it. My 'ol 351M will suck it down going to little Rock. I think i will anyways but is their anywhere in Conway or Heber that maybe one of yall work at that does that? "FTE discount" Also, what is the regulation on the "brow" on the front windshield? My brother thinks 8 inches but i will not be able to see outove it with that? whats a good inch that i can see out of and it will look cool. Thanks for reading the long post and hope for your response. Also cant wait til Jan 16. Ill be 16 AND BE ABLE TO GO TO THE MEETS AND SHOW YALL MY FORD/ SEE YALL's

Taylor

As for how thick you can make the sun strip, it can only go 6" down from the center of the windshield.

So if the center of the windshield is 15 inches? you can go down 21? like your saying, or just 6 inches from the top?

Thanks again. Taylor

If he has it done at a "legal" shop they can only do 25% in the back and 35% on the front.

I got mine done at solar shield. And I got 20's or so in front and 15's in back. If I could redo it id go 15's all the way around. (The back meaning the little half windows and rear glass) I love the way the 15's looks on my truck. The 20 is just a little to light for my taste.
