for me, i prefer the stock tinting on the windshield. i like it better than any other tint because it fades into clear glass and doesnt look so odd.

Its looks alrite, just dont make it too big .
my uncle had it on his silver cougar, but he used silver tint
even though the rest was black
but it just blended better

I can't stand the tint brow on the front of cars... I just think it looks tacky. I had them tint my whole windshield and I love it. I have all sides and the back tinted at 5% and the whole front windshield is 35%. You can't even see into the front windshield from the outside because the rest of the windows are so dark. Tint the whole thing!

guarantee you'll love it, but if you're getting 5% on the sides and back, wouldn't suggest getting the whole front windshield any darker than 35% :)

I used to say the same thing.....until I got busted, in my own neighborhood!!! You can see how dark mine were and understand it. Mine was 5% on the sides and the back 3 windows.

I don't think that dark tint sticks out that much on black cars since the whole car is black, well to me anyways. Did you get a ticket?

Well the cop I got pulled over by in my neighborhood, he actually lives in my neighborhood. He originally gave me a ticket, but then realized who I was and who my dad is, also a cop, but in a different town. So he came to my house and talked to my dad, ripped up the ticket, and just told me to take off the tint when I got the chance. Otherwise my dad would've "beefed" him to his department, considering that the cop was off duty and pulled me over.
