tinted windshield

Everything from my first post had been DELETED.

UPDATES:
I basically told the shop they ****ed me over and to re do it my windshield in 35%. They did it.
Here are some pics I took this morning in direct day light. The sides are 20% and the rear three windows are 5%.

Enjoy.






I think it looks much better.

It will seem like there is nothing on it since 50% is a very very very light tint. It is allowing 50% of light to shine through. At least its blockin them uv rays eh? haha

looks clean. Twilight blue FTW

go with 35% since you have a light interior.

I have 70% on my windsheild in my Navigator and it makes a big difference when the truck sits in the sun, love it.
I thought tinting the front windsheild was illegal? I figure 35% would definately get you a ticket in a heart beat.

Twilight Blue FTW.

I got my TB Tinted 20%, and I love it. 50% is not enough IMO. But still looks good none the less.

P.S. Wash your rims!
