Car window tinting

[stbob]

100% of my rear windows have the factory tint, zero percent on the front windows...

Got it done recently at Mastershield. It's a shame that the door at the background says xPel, because the tint I chose to go with was 3M Crystalline.

3M Crystalline is good stuff. Best I have personally used though, I'm hearing good things about the new ceramic tints.

I am honestly not a fan of car window tint since I feel so blind when driving at night that I need to have my windows down just to see wing mirrors.

Then don't buy cheap dyed limo tint.

Modern tints aren't 'opaque' at night with reasonable 'shielding' levels. In my case, 3M Crystalline 40% presents me no issues at night and seemingly disappears in actual use.

My daughter's car has clear UV tinting. 110F outside and the inside has to be 30 -40 degrees less. No sunburn.

I got my work van and car done couple years ago professionally. No tint on front windshield, only issue was I had lots of Dog hair (Jake husky). All over they vacuumed but said it would be possible for a hair to get stuck on the tint. The tint was as dark as I could go legally

I prefer 35% all around on my car. Looks fine and not too dark.
