JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Looks great!

I think I will go with 15% or 20%, I will let the pros at Line X see which one the think will match the hardtop best. BTW cant beat both windows for $60 with a lifetime warranty .

Sure, there is a difference between brands. Also, the light source whenever taking the photos has to be considered. My tint matches and that's all I wanted. Although, it isn't legal.

Good point. With the 20% on the side windows it is a little hard to see out in the dark or in a really wooded area. But, that's what power windows are for!

Somerset Ky Line X, that's where I'm getting mine done also. Did they do a good job and was they very careful with your jeep?

BTW I work in Somerset, good to see a fellow Kentuckian.

Well mine is 80% but I think you guys work off a different percentage than we do in Ohio. Here 65% is legal. And my 80% is obviously illegal, but after a year of having them that dark I've yet to get pulled over for it.
