What is everyone's suggestion as far as tinting the top part of the front windshield? And for those of you that have it tinted, can we get a pic of that?

For those still looking, my tint is 15% all around. 7" strip on the front. I told them to use the less glossy stuff because it makes it look a little darker. I get migraines a lot so dark windows are a must for me. I don't think visibility is bad, but then again all my cars have had 15% so I'm used to it. Hope this helps someone.

Sorry for the bad quality pics. I have a 5% tint Strip on my front windshield. It looks curved but the line is very straight. Also the tint ship and to do two strip due to my homelink review mirror. You can kinda see why in the first pictures. If you look close you will see the wire for the rearview mirror.

Pennsylbackassedvania has nothing on CONnecticut, where you have to be a rocket scientist just to decipher the regulations:

Been meaning to take some tint pics for the thread here...

- Quantum phase shifting carbon monoliquid tint.
- 20db gain from 1kHz to 58Ghz for increased radio reception
- UV and IR absorbant film creates sustainable resources for future generations
- Pico Ceramic technology - that's 1000 x better than Nano Ceramic....
- Unlimited Partial Lifetime warranty for the life of the tires on Sundays

Not bad for 5% all around 3M film eh?

Anyhow on to the pics. I was out with my friend and his Z06 and unfortunately his cars are in some of the pics. Man that car is sick (the good kind of sick ) .....
