How is the driving at night? I'm going to be doing 50% I think soon but in curious about nighttime driving since mine is a daily driver.

I have 50% on my windshield (20% on all other windows) and it's been on there for over a year and have had no problems at all at night...of course I think having the HIDs as headlights helps. Here is a pic, it looks darker than 50% in this pic but I think it's just the time of day and angle of pic but I think it gives it a great overall look

Night time driving isn't bad at all. I thought it was gonna be worse than it actually is. But if you didn't know the tint was there, I don't think you would notice.

Yep, and the car doesn't get overly hot when it's been parked outside for too long.

Wow, i don't think I'd ever do that. Looks great but I don't want to get in trouble with the police.

I actually did the same thing a couple months ago. I had 15 on my car for a year and then once I got 35 on the windshield I ended up getting pulled over and getting a repair order. Enjoy it while it lasts, assuming its illegal where u are. It looks great but the cops didn't seem to think so.

I'm pretty sure it isn't legal anywhere, but I see quite a bit a cars with tinted windshields here in NM. But I should enjoy it while it lasts lol.

I'm legal. Virginia (as well as most states) have a medical exemption form for windshield tint.
