I would recommend against the resonator cutting unless you put in a high-flow res in its place. Heard the drone is unbearable.
I know of a real good tint shop down in Philly, that's where I'm going and I live north of Allentown.

If you want to go conservative, go 40-50%. But you probably won't be happy. I'm doing 30%. Cops usually won't bug you for tint alone, they need more than that. But once you get pulled over then they can give you a hard time. A cop's recommendation to me was to just roll all the windows down before they get to the car so they can see in and don't think you're thinking funky stuff. Just be polite.
You shouldn't pay over $160 for the whole car. Most importantly, go to a good shop.

I need to get mine tinted again, but on-contrare to you Jason some cops will pull you over for tint alone. My windows on my LX were 35% which in my opinion is plenty dark, seeing as you couldnt see in during day, and I was in Hershey (derry township) and they are noted for busting people on it. My luck for that day was to be driving past the notorious cop for it, and he busted me. It really sucked, but then I totalled the car, so the tinti didnt matter. Now for this one Im going to PennDot to get a sunscreen permit as they call it and my doctor already signed a paper saying I need it due to motion sickness if windows arent tinted. Isnt exactly true but hey its a medical reason.
