Not when this could cause other problems.
Also, you will be a huge target for the police, most are usually ok on low tint on the side windows but anything on the front they will go for you.

With or without the tints the Z is already a huge target. HIS CARS RED! You will be fine bro just keep a look out. It’s funny to me how people want to be law fighting citizens.

Actually a red car has nothing to do with it, the theory that a red car is a higher target is actually false.
Also, my concern was for others, driving at night with front tint can be very dangerous. Been in cars, not driving, and could barely see much in front of the car that did not have its own light on it (i.e. a car).

I wish insurance companies would think that way. Was always charged extra for having a red car.

Who's your insurance carrier? The color of the vehicle is rarely, if ever, considered when generating an insurance premium presently.

I jumped around to several during my ownership, whenever one would raise my rates (no tickets, etc., likely moving me away from an "introductory rate").

As has been mentioned, it is most certainly not legal in Texas. Even side window tint is severely restricted at 25% max.

Wish I had your cojones, but I don't have the time or the money to bother being hassled by cops any more than I already do

On topic, 50% tint all around looks Look forward to pics
