some tint questions

i called around here a couple weeks ago and the best i could get was $200 for legal (35%). anything darker was cash only and they wouldnt give me a price.
 
I was considering a titanium syle tint for my red 3. Anyone care to voice their opinion/experiences with non-black tints? The shade I am looking at is 22% so I was just gonna use it all around.

A friend of mine got the titanium tint on his 04 Jetta. It looks really nice. I've got an appointment to get my windows tinted next week from the same guy, I'm definitely considering that style (I've got a red 5 door.) I might get 20% all around, but I'll see what they say as well. Legal is 35% in Washington, I guess I have to sign a waiver to get it installed.

That's how I paid for mine (cash). If you are ever in the Raleigh area, I can put you in contact with the guy that did mine (20%).
 
If you're worried about staying legal, just stick with 35% all around.
That's what I have, and with my black leather interior, it looks darker than it really is without being overly distracting.
Go for smoke (black) tint--it's plain, classy, and never goes out of style.
Since you live in MD, I highly recommend Winners Window Tint in Rockville.
Their work is impeccable.

I got mine done for $150.
Just call ahead for a quote and an appointment.
Be sure to ask to speak with the owner; the workers there aren't able to negotiate prices.
Tell him the Subura guys sent you, that you have a 5-door, and if one-fifty is alright. ;)
