Nice!
What brand tint is that? What % did you do? I would ask $, but wouldn't mean much considering our geographical differences. I'm not a fan of real dark tints, but can appreciate beauty when I see it ;)

sweet! thanks for the photochop! i've been meaning to do it sometime. next up is drop springs whenever the hell i can get my hands on some and some wheels!
it's 5% in the rear 3 windows and the front 2 are 35%, im taking my chances here in cali by having the fronts tinted (the law is nothing on the front and anything you want on the rear)
man this thing is going to look GOOD soon!

Sweet looking ride you got there!! Depending on the angle of the pic there is not much difference between the front and back...
Good luck with the coppers

The tint sure give your sedan a more aggressive look.
As far as the 35% tint in the front goes, just remember to roll your window down ahead of time when you see cops around or road check.

I got 50% in front on mine, and yours is obviously darker, looks great but good luck.

Folsom Lake Toyota? I hadn't realized they had any Yarii yet. Did they have an LB to test drive? And did you do the tint yourself or have it done... and where?

I saw my first Yaris in person the other day... it was going the opposite way on Hy 50 in Placerville... was a red S, too. If I hadn't had to work I would have flipped around and followed it.

How did Folsom Lake Toyota treat you? Did you have to order your S?

The tint looks great!

at the time when i bought mine all they had was a black auto sedan and my red s. but they did have a white liftback a week before. i was on the lot friday and didnt see anyothers but im sure they are getting as many as they can.
i had the tint done at kidwells glass on greenback, they did an awesome job
mine was on the lot when i got it, and i work at folsom lake kia so i get employee discount on toyotas, fords, and kias (all chuck peterson run)

I can't wait to see the Yaris dropped on wheels! The more I look at the sedans the more I like 'em!

35% is cool here in Cali. I have had 35% driver/passenger and 20% rear 3 for about 3 years now without any problem.

technically you cannot tint the front windows in cali, but you can do whatever you want to the rear 3
