Here in Illinois you can do 6 inches from the top, therefore...yes... it is MUCH more illegal.

If you tint just the top 6 inches which is legal, there is no fine. (legal here in IL)

I know here in MO you can only go down to the line on the windshield. I'll have the tint shop go lower and have the tint match the rest. I've been pulled over for illegal tint before, and cops here never check that strip.

I tinted my taillights last night, but I dont like how they turned out so I'm working on them again today. They were a dull black, and I didnt get around the edges good. I'm waiting for the tint to dry around the edges right now, and I plan on a couple coats of clear.
Removed the taillights:

First coat:

When I put them back on:

You can see the edges and how dull it is:

New pics will come later after I finish attempt #2.

I think I read somewhere that the more coats you put on the more dull they look. Not sure where I read that though.
