Default Window Tinting in the NOVA area?

Hey guys, I am trying to get my windows tinted on my 2003 Jaguar X-type. I live in the alexandria/springfield/kingstowne area. I am looking for a nice and repulatable shop that does work. Anyone know any good places? I am not trying to pay over the top prices also.

Also i was planing on getting 35% all around. My question is, a stupid question, how often do you guys get pulled over for your "illegal" tints? And If i tell the officer that they came like that from factory, what are the chances of him letting me off?

THANKS!!!

Unless the Jaguar X-type is an SUV... none. You stand a better chance by bawling uncontrollably and promising sexual favors.

cops aren't dumb. they'll know whether you have tinted windows or whatnot. why not get 50/35? (legal limit) try vip tint in chantilly or express tint in centreville, va.

35% is what most ppl go for depending if you have dark interior makes tint look darker than what it is....but most likely they will leave you alone
