Default Front window tint

Hey Guys,

A couple days ago I had a new front windshield installed in the truck. Later I had some 35% tint layed down on the new glass.

I like it, it's darker than I intended. I didn't take into consideration the front glass probably already had some sort of UV film on the glass. So now my front 35% is darker than my side glass 35% tint.









Night driving is practically unaffected, obviously it's darker but it's not bad. I'm sure my 8K HIDS help out here too.

So far I haven't had any trouble with the local fuzz, I've driven past several police cars and been next to them on the road. So far they haven't taken an interest, but I'm sure it's a matter of time.

None the less, I'm happy with it. The women like the fact people can't see in, especially at night.

Cheers ~Mykk

Looks great! I love the tint on my windshield as well, really helps with glare and everything and like you said, it doesnt bother me at all at night either. In the rain its a little more tough but certainly manageable.

Why would an inspection sticker and tags be on the windshield?
