Default Tint me

I just got a new ride (Mazda6) and would like to get the windows tinted. Anyone know any shops that do good work? And for how much? Pref near Alexandria.

Also, what are the legal limits? I wanna get it as dark as possible, but not have problems with inspections.

thx!

i used to have 20% all around because my car was originally from nevada.

never had trouble with police, and even when i was pulled over for exhaust, he didn't question me about it.

i also passed inspection which i think heavily depends upon the station you go to and the people that work there.
