Nice tint. I just had my sun stripe done on the windshield. I would also like to redo my other windows that the dealer did with a lessor tint now.

Haha your car looks exactly like mine now! I went to Huper Optik 30 all around with 60 on the entire windshield. I'm sure you love it.

So far I like them. The big question is to see if it really does block the radiant heat from the sun.

The radiant heat demonstration display they had at the tint shop seemed to work haha!

It is the good stuff. I had it on my 04 Spec V and on my current 09 NISMO. Can't beat it. Never thought about doing the whole windshield, but I have a pretty crappy sunshade that I put up in the summer and it does the trick for now.

Here's the skinny on window tint films. First, check your local laws to determine the legal darkness limits for window films to prevent fines and having to remove and repalce it. Second, metallic films will interfere with radio signals for phones, GPS, satellite radio, etc. Third, most any warranty is for a pro-rated cost of the film and does not cover labor. If you buy a decent product/brand you should not need to be overly concerned with the warranty.

American Standard Window Film (ASWF) (Erickson International) in Las Vegas manufactures window films, including ceramic window tint films, for many of the window film companies.

3M makes very good window film products and is available from most any reputable window tint shop.

Eastman bought Solutia, which owns Vista, Huper Optik, Llumar, Formula1, Gila, EnerLogic, Sun-X, V-KOOL, and other brands. While Solutia companies offer good window tint films they are marketed at different price points. Of these, Huper Optik is way overpriced and Llumar offers good value for your money.

Other products are available from Madico, Johnson, SolarGard, Solar Control, and SunTek.

What Is The Best Value?From talking to many window tinting companies, that offer several competing product lines, the universal agreement seems to be that Sun-Gard (by Madico), Llumar and 3M offer the best value for your money. Paying a premium price does not mean that you necessarily get a better, or better performing, window tint film. Hope this helps!

After getting my windshield sun strip done. I think I will replace the tint on the car before summer hits with more Huper Optik. Much better than the crap the dealer had put on.

After 90 degree weather lately the interior doesnt seem to trap as much heat as before. So far I like them...even with the added cost vs other ceramic tints.
