It's expensive, so I would like to get some feedback on whether or not this stuff is any good. Short/Long term reliability? Not sure how long it's been out on market.

just go with SG the best out there thats what I installed on my Z

Also when your shop does the back window make sure its cut to the right length, which means it is an inside job he has to sit there and cut it out slowly, sadly it may look wrong, atleast the guy who did mine wasnt a fatass so he could fit in the hatch

Hey guys,

Question for you. I live in CT and today my brother got a "warning" about his tint from a cop. Apparently we need a sticker from the dmv that says its been approved. Has anyone heard of this before? I dont want to run into this problem as i have 20% all around. Anyone have any ideas of how to get around this haha..

What % tint would make it impossible to see inside the interior on a sunny day?

none, even limo tint (5%) can you see thru ever so slightly at the right angle on a suny day.
