Visibility

IMO this car is meant to be driven forward...This is coming from someone with no tint.

sadly even with the touring and sport packages I still dont have the backup camera because it didnt come with the homelink mirror. Guess I will have to take a survey behind me before I back out of anywhere...gonna probably go 35%

Bingo..Even back to the 300ZX, when you got into it, you said, wow I cannot see very well out back.

But once you are on the road and driving, between the rear view mirror, and the two side mirrors, no problem..

Same with the 350Z and the 370Z.. Just watch it backing up, and then you are good to go...

I got 30's all around and visability is the same as without it. Blind spots are crazy on this car with or without tint.

5% and love it!!!

It keeps the interior cool ... it is dark as hell at night and very hard to see anything outside. Backup camera is a must.

The way I understand it the lower the number (i.e. 5% equals 5% of the available light allowed thru the tint) the darker the tint. Is that correct?
