20 % Window Tint with 50% Windshield Tint Complete: With Pics!!!
I actually had the tinting done last weekend, but haven't had a chance to post some pics of her.
They matched up the front windows with the backwith 20% and she looks great! I was going to go darker in the back and go limo on the back windows, but as luck would have it a Dodge Ram drove by with the same setup and I didn't care for the mis-matched look. She's a truck, not a limo! Enough said!
While I was there a guy with a Toyota Prius (spellcheck?) was having his windshield done. I've always opted for the strip at the top so I advised the guy to do the front windows, pending the completion of the Prius' winshield. After it was done I looked inside and was impressed with the amount of light and visibility it offered while negating a good portion of the glare from sun and headlights.
So.... I opted for a 50% windshield tinting in lieu of the strip this time around! Couldn't be happier!

Techinically it's illegal to tint the windshield. I spoke with the shop at length along with other people who have tinted the entire windshield. Basically it's Florida, so if you're not hot ******* or pulled for another reason, I doubt it will be an issue. If you happen to be pulled over and they notice it, they can demand you remove it or write you a ticket.
Given it's Florida, and the Sun is so brutal here, I'm not too worried about it. 30 - 40% of the vehicles I pass each day seem to have it done so it's a risk, but a small one.

First of all, the truck looks great. Love the tint and I never thought of doing that.
Second of all, something is bugging me, how do you all get your pics to show up so big on your posts. When I post pics, they show up as a thumbnail.
BTW, did I say I really like the look of the truck?!!! LOL

Thanks for the kudos guys! I really appreciate it. Two mods down, more to come, I'm sure! LOL!
