Tinted my Windows

[Randy]

Here is my XLT sport.

20% XPEL XR Ceramic Window Film front doors.
20% XPEL XR Ceramic Window Film rear doors and Rear Split Glass on top of factory colored glass.
70% XPEL XR Blue Ceramic Film on the whole Windshield.

This alone is a $650 Ceramic Window Tint job at my shop all day.

*When having your whole Windshield tinted, demand your installer cover the dash with a cotton rope, or soakshield, and to have a towel laid on top of your modem, which is right under the glove compartment, this area will potentially get wet from a full installation of the windshield.

SOB
Michigan tint laws are a pain


Windshield: Non-reflective tint is allowed on the top 4 inches of the windshield. Front Side windows: Any darkness can be applied 4 inches from the top of the window. Back Side windows: Any darkness can be used. Rear Window: Any darkness can be used.

thats really talking about the 50% or lower. the 90% and 70% are newer products that are ment to block uv and heat, not darken the window.

Yeah, that Michigan law with just 4" on the top of the side windows needs to be shut down, it provides zero UV protection.

Window tint was the first thing I did. Matched the front sides to the rears. had it done professionally. I would have made a mess of it.

 

[SN13]

Just did 30% all windows. Mine had no tint from the factory.

Used LLUMAR Formula 1 Pinnacle.

Then also did 80 on the windshield.

I tinted the fronts only to match the rear, came within 1%. It was about $200 for the ceramic tint. Legal in Ga is 30%, these are 28%.

I think GA is 32%?

Everything I own is tinted, went straight from the dealership to the shop, went 20% all around and over factory tint

 

[Sandman Ranger]

CXP Window tiny added to front sides 35% and windshield 70%. Plus 35% strip at top. Rear of truck tinted from factory. CXP is carbon based and an IR reflective film. 50% IR 100% UV
Windshield is a must. Current laws need to be changed. Driver ability to easily see outweighs reasons for no windshield tint or film use.

Tinted my front windows to match the back and added clear ceramic tint to the windshield.
Thanks for the great advice in here.
