Check your state's Vehicle Code there taz3, obscuring windows can get you a "Fix It" ticket in some states.
Police really get nervous when windows are completely obscured, it puts them on edge, their thinking is "he/she has got something to hide".

Thank you, but we are ok up here to block them. Typically, I tint them as dark as I can. The driver and passenger front windows my not exceed 30% tint, other then that we are able to black all others out.

Gee Chris, my silver HHR got new feets too!
I left Michelle in the care of Dr. Dustin, we'll use his Christian name when he's acting in his Professional Capacity by "Taking care of Mommy", otherwise he prefers Dusty as any three year old tagged with Dustin James would.
Four nice new Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTZ "Ultra High Performance" tires went on Paddy the '07, with the best two of the "almost to the wear indicators" tires getting mounted on the AutoCross rims for next year.
As always, thanks to Brother's Tire Sales, and Dusty thinks the "Lights 'N Sound" Gravedigger truck they sent home with me is "Cooooolll!"
Instead of the standard "Heap 'O Food" for Thanksgiving, Michelle's Chemo dinged body has requested lighter fare, so turkey sandwiches and soup are tomorrow's menu.
She's beating this stuff, it's one day at a time.
Take good care of Helen Oldblue, she's a fighter, she just needs a breather before the bell rings for the next round.

An expensive start to the Holiday hhr06NJ, but those spoil-sports at Chevy stopped putting crank handles on their trucks in 1947 give or take a year.
But don't let it ruin things and have a Happy Thanksgiving Buddy.

Starter Motor Cost
Thank You! and Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
I am happy, as i got the car back same day, so saved 2 more days rental due to holiday today ($90)
The shop wanted $286 for a RECONDITIONED part, so he would guarantee the LIFETIME LABOR to coincide with the Lifetime PARTS warranty.
That was $100 MORE than the highest price from local auto parts stores.
I waived his labor warranty, i ran to Advanced and had the (MY starter) part in his hands in 10 minutes.
The battery and alternator were checked out ok
THE WRAPS:
that is kool. They are eye catching. Are you a Wrap Vendor? Customer?
His cost per day estimate puts the cost at about $3,600?
