Good luck on your road to the riches. Your first comment indicated your wishes.

4. This all was about your windshield being illegally obstructed.

In conclusion, I have no need for anymore money than i have now and that's not the point. The point is that you are in the wrong and don't want to admit it. That's ok though have fun when its almost night out and that kid starts crossing the road and....oh yea you have a excuse for that too.
You're not comprehending this at all. I never denied windshields being illegal, never once. I know it is but I DON'T care. Side windows have just as much to do with obstructed views if it's illegal tint ad then you rambled on about ignorance and of the law so I suggested many vehicles in this forum are "igorant" because they're illegal thru various mods.

Haha and now you're talking about kids getting hit because of a little tint on a windshield that isn't as dark as a pair on sunglasses. All I told you is that you'd have a hard time proving that tint became a factor in an accident. "It's not what you know, it's what you can prove". If you've ever seen a tinted windshield in person then you'd know it wouldn't be a factor. As far as reaching goes, you would be doing quite a bit.


This really needs to get back on topic. It's a decision thread for people to look at tints and make their own decision toward a future purchase.

I have to say i'm envious more of the fact that almost Everyone has a Black 370Z, WTF! I looked for 6 months and couldn't find anything within 500 miles of me that was black so i had to cope with red :/ I mean don't get me wrong I love my Z, but If I find a Magnetic Black or a Black Cherry, I wouldn't hesitate to trade XD and my Z has I think 20% all the way around but i'm not sure, I know it's way darker than the 30% is

I have Huper Optik ESC 35 on the sides and hatch. The work was done by Kroehl at Atlantic Tint Worx in Point Harbor, NC. He did a great job, was very professional and allowed me to take pictures during the install.

My car came with tinted windows. Did you guys tint over them? Have the tint removed and retinted? just curious. Id have had them tinted a bit darker than what came with the car.

You should remove the tint first and clean the window and re tint.

Hey Nice tails thinking of smoking mines as well, do the tail and brake lights still illuminate well enough so that people behind u can see at night?
