Gunsmoked Lamin-X on Monaco Blue done.

Lamin-X installed. Up close you can see I did a not-very-good-job, but from a distance it looks okay. I will probably have my tint shop redo them when I get the windows tinted, though.

This is just to give you an idea of Gunsmoke (12%) on a darker color car. As some others have said, I wouldn't go any darker (they have 2 tints darker). Light transmission is EXCELLENT, hardly perceptable loss in lighting at all. At night I really couldn't tell. I should have taken a pic with one side on and the other off to demonstrate that.

O_o that's 12%? interesting.... i have 10% on mine though my tails are MUCH darker... practically black. These look more like 25% or 30% to be "smoke"... just saying.
