Just got my windshield done with 45% and the rest of the car was already done a few months ago in 15%. The windshield makes all the difference. Its like driving with sunglasses on during the day. At night you can't even tell it's tinted. With the windows open, nobody can tell its tinted, unless they're looking for it. It looks much darker in the pics than it does in person. I'll take better pics another time.

It's the dawn/dusk that'll get you, but maybe not so much as with 45%. The times when it's not too bright or dark for having your windows down to make a difference. I had an Accord with 5% all around and 35% on the windshield and got away with it for about 5 years.

That is. . . until I pulled up first at a light during dusk making a left. The cop was in the oncoming lane and was first, too. I know he was staring me down It was dusk and I had all my windows and sunroof down. Needless to say, shortly making my left, I see the lights and knew exactly what it was for. Oh well, had to happen eventually.

I live in KY btw and they really don't give a **** about tint in general. I think this one cop was just had his eye out.

Be careful with that! If you get into an accident especially if it was with me and there was any bodily injury at all, i would go after you in court for obstructing your clear view of the road (its illegal) for quite a few coins
