Yep lifetime warranty just keep the receipt and i have not heard of ppl in MD getting pulled for HID side markers. I have on the other hand heard of people getting pulled because their headlights were too damn bright though.

hrm.. do you know if the tint shop does group discounts? i have two other cars who want to have their tints done. when you had your tints done, were there any drips on the sides of the doors or the back?

haha, i think im just goin to get the HID bulbs then cuz the stealth bulbs just plain suck.

MD law requires amber, orange, or yellow turn signals...so you decide what you want to do. there are no such things as HID side marker bulbs. if you're going to perfect touch, don't plan on waiting there...they take forever.

No I dont think they do group discounts. And back what dan said... they do take a little while but they do a good job.

Dan its nice to see your still around.. I thought you fell off the edge of the earth.

+1... I had clear bulbs in my MX-6 (daily driver) and got pulled over. He didn't have a problem with my hyper white headlight bulbs or side marker lights, but had a problem with the turn signal bulbs. I had to put the stock amber back in and had the repair order signed off at a inspection station. (no charge though). It's probably a 50-50 chance of getting pulled over, depending on the cop.

D&L quoted me $160 all around w/their brand tint down to 20%. Anything lower than that was about $200. The 3M scratch resistant was $200 for any percentage. I know 2 people with the D&L brand and they haven't had any problems for about 2 years now.

I plan to just do 35% in about a month.

Hey man, welcome back to the board! Haven't seen you around here in quite a while...

Hey, I got 35% from D&L a few months ago, with the 3M stuff, and the lifetime warranty (which is an extra $50 charge). They used to include the warranty years ago, but now it's extra. So yeah, it was pricey, but it I'll never have to worry about it for the life of the car. If you want to see how it looks, just let me know!

I have been lurking for a while, I just didn't have any thing good to post or comment on.

Is your band practicing Sunday morning? I'll be @ Joppatowne High School playing tennis. I'm done @ 11am if you want to meet me there for a few minutes if its not raining. Were you able to finish the Sirius project?

I should have mentioned that the D&L prices were from about a year ago and they didn't even mention that the warranty WASN'T included.

Thats odd. They may have moved to their new location then. Call 411 and ask for a perfect touch in glen burnie or pasadena. I know the new spot is off rt 2

Maybe 20 miles. Its the opposite end of Rt 100. but you dont have to go all teh way down. I know you get off 100 and go south on rt 2 for a few miles. I am just not sure if thats still glen burnie or pasadena. If you want I can show you where the new location is when you have some free time.
