Look at the side of your windshield. There are three letters, "as1" I believe. Tinting below that is illegal inmost states. I had my Black 01 Monte tinted 5% down to there. It was awesome, except when I was the first or second car at a light. I had to duck down to see the lights change. I had my 04 Monte and now my 03 GP done the same way, but 20%. Most shops will tint in a line from the bottom of your rearview mirror over to the "as1" mark.

Here's a link to tint laws, last updates July 07

According to this link, it is pretty much illegal in Iowa to tint your front windows. Most glass has a visible light transmission of 85 and you can only go to 70.

Sorry I have no pictures of my tint I'll be stopping by walmart to see if they have the peice I need to upload my pics onto my computer but anyhow I went to Oreily's and bought 5% window tint film and put it across my front window and it applied nicley, i removed all the airbubbles and trimmed the peices and it looks amazing now. It has no air bubbles or wrinkles to it I guess tinting it wasnt that hard to do it cause I had a friend help me out and we had it done in 20 minutes.

believe me you will care when you get pulled over for speeding and then you get another ticket for your tint... IMO i dont think tinting the windsheild or oding it yourself is a good idea

Well I did it myself, looks really nice and I went below the AS1 marker but im already gonna get pulled over for tint if im speeding neway cause ive got illegal tint on my front passenger and driver door. So at this point im not going to care, if i must remove the strip up front itll be easy cuz it only costed me 10 bucks from Oreilys:)
