Looks good!

I've gotta find a good local place now too - won't be going nearly that dark though. I've found that with metallic tints 35% is perfect for me.

Looks awesome, what % is the tint? I know the tint on black makes it look even darker. I have a black dodge ram and love the tint on mine.
You have a very smart looking smart

Ours neither ( not checked on inspection, but hope the cops don't put a light on it).

Ironically, there was a cop in the shop in full uniform waiting to pay the bill for getting his dual cab pickup done in the same 26% tint! Chatted with me about how good the smart looked with the tint. Guess he won't be pulling me over....

Thanks. Its 26% non-metallic carbon. With the big greenhouse on the smart, in daylight it can look lighter than it would on other cars, which should hopefully keep the cops at bay. My silver 300SRT8 has 35% tint and though it does not look as dark, it looks close because of the contrast and the chopped windows.
