Not doing the windshield then?

Nope. Hate when it's just the stripe at the top, and considering all aftermarket tint is illegal in RI, I don't need to bring that kind of attention to myself. I already push the line with tint and no front plate 🤣

All tint being illegal is nuts...Windshield tint's illegal here but you still see people doing crazy shit like 20%. It's so obvious and I'm not really a fan of the look. I went 80% and you can't tell it's tinted at all.

all tint illegal? Dang...... VA had a law change where it's not even worth it for cops to pull anyone for tint anymore

Yup. It's annoying. But the cops mostly don't care. I've been stopped before without it even mentioned. Only if they were in a bad mood, they could tack "illegal tint" on to any traffic violation.

Was browsing a shop's website the other day and apparently there's now "transparent" ceramic tints out there? So you get a decent reduction in IR transmission with essentially zero VLT reduction. Sounded pretty cool.

Uh… only if the “whole” purpose is to look dark lol.

I’m pulling the tints from my car (leaving windshield since it’s already 70%) and then replacing it with a “clear” or max % ceramic solely for the UV and heat protection since I want the look of the car to have visible interior

What a beautiful reminder that I should've gone darker with my tint.

dark tint on white is a good look

it's the child in me, but gives kind off a spaceship vibe

Does your car do the thing where if you pass out while drunk driving it'll pull over for you, or is that only a 8.5 thing?
