i have just picked my Z (about 4hrs ago) and now starts the first hunt... TINT! sooo anyone with recommendations as to brand (3M, LLumar, etc..) percentage and if sun is on you, going through the tint, do you feel any heat?

don't know the brand but i have 30% on the sides and 15 % in the rear. thought 15% would be too dark for the rear but it's not!!!!!!!

I have 30% tint all around with Wincos by Madico. Wincos uses the Nano Ceramic stuff and it really does work.
