I have a gold S-type. I went with a black 30% tint on the sides with a 20% in the back. I believe that the brandname is LLumar.

It is working out well for me and I believe it would for you as well.

i have 20% llumar on fronts and rears and back window of mine. Its the perfect shade for these cars, and its black. Silver chrome tint i dont think will do the car justice

In Mass, legally I have to have 35% on the front windows, or i can get a fine and will also get a rejection sticker. I have 18%, I believe, on the rear door windows and large rear window. I personally like the silverish tints, on white and silver vehicles, but it really depends on your car. Do you have any pics?

Also, I wouldn't do the tint yourself unless you are extremely capable.

technically no tint is the only legal thing in PA. However when you have gone to court and won as many times as i have, its a non-issue for me. With 20% all the way around, i haven't been bothered with at all.

it depends on how well you know the law. It passes inspection at a certified state inspection facility.......and there is no technical law for failing it during the inspection process....so if it passes the state certified inspection procedure, then you cant be dinged for it. Case closed. And i have beaten it about 6 times using this simple formula. And then i continue to reference the cases each time. And i have 20 on this car, i used to run limo all the way around. As an fyi.
