Any pictures of a 40th with under 20% tint? That's what I have now and would like to see how a darker tint would look.

Nice! I have 20% all around and 55% on the entire windshield. I can't seem to find any good pics of the windows in your albums.

Just tinted my car the other day, came out nice if I don't say so myself. 25% Front / 18% rear. Just the right amount of tint where you can barely see in without impairing visibility looking out.

Just got her on Sunday with it tinted from the dealership 20% all around. It was too light for my liking, so I took her in today to get Llumar 15% put on top of the 20% and did 50% on the windshield. Looks great now!

Haha both me and my buddy with the Nismo have been rocking tinted windshields since we got the Z's and neither of us have been pulled over. I actually drove to NY, thru Syracuse from FL and was never stopped last August..... As long as you don't drive like an a-hole you'll be alright
