Hello,

I just had some ceramic tint put on my Super V8, and I haven't even driven the car yet, but I'm assuming I'll like it (I did 35%, which I think is a perfect amount for this car).

The shop has 70% ceramic tint as well, which the guy said he installs on people's windshields pretty often. Anyone here have experience with windshield tint, ceramic or not? I like the idea of fully keeping the heat out of the car, including through the front.

Here's a post-tint photo, for your viewing pleasure:

Hated it. Could not see well at dusk and at night. Plus in Texas it will not pass inspection.
The job was done very well. No wrinkles. Used a clothes steamer to remove.

I have the factory shades in the rears.

Can't tint a windshield here in Minnesota beyond factory tint.

Don't think tinting the windshield is a good idea for dusk/night time driving, although I wish the windshield glass could change shade depending on lighting conditions like my Transitions eyeglasses.

Years ago I had this tint film called 'Autolux' put on my '86 XJ6 Series-III. I would park the car in hot Southern California sun for hours and the interior would always be cool. Sure miss the old Kitty.

Cheers,
