Another Sticky Dash Issue

50%?!?

It is illegal to tint your front windshield here in Texas (with the exception of the upper 5 inches of glass). I can't imagine having tint on my windshield at night or in heavy rain. Talk about dangerous...

lots of cars come with 70% factory tints on the front. The 370z does have a factory tint. (EDIT: coloured glass)
You can get "tints" that don't block much visible light but block a lot of the heat and UV

EDIT: I was really surprised by how little light 45% tint blocks myself. If you believe these graphics

70% is great. 50% is a little too much but awesome when people come up on you with their bright lights on. Never had an issue with it on the car. 70% is hardly noticeable unless you know what you are looking for.
You rode in my car, you didn't even notice it. I have been known to bend a tint law every now and then. LMAO!!!! All of my cars have 70% front window tint. I will never have another one that is not tinted.

It was grey enough outside that I did notice the reduced visibility. No wonder your car was so slow!! jk man I know 50% is not bad

As a passenger, I prefer tinted windows all around: 5% please. But as a driver I do not like any of the windows to be tinted because it reduces visibility. Just a personal preference. Living in Texas, believe me I understand their desirability for most people.

I've gotten a rental car before with the front windshield tinted pretty good. They didn't believe me until we looked at another car.

IKR... now imagine how much damage there would be if I had tinted windows
