Perfect! That's actually just how I like my tint lol.CA tint law sucks! Car now tinted, but you can barely tell. 70/55 Suntek CXP & Solar Gaurd UP80 windshield. Oh, I do notice the car take less time to cool now...i.e., after sitting in the sun all day at work, I now feel very comfy 10 minutes into my drive home, rather than having to wait long before the tint.
That's reassuring! I'm doing the windows and hatch in crystalline 40 tomorrow. Not doing the windshield though...I have 3M crystalline 40 on all the windows and crystalline 70 down the front windshield on mines. It looks super dark like 5% thanks to having black interior but it's more like 35% metered out.
Depending on the way lighting hits your car it will have the illusion of being blacked out. I have it on all my other cars and get asked constantly if it's legal or not. I once got pulled over only to meter out within the legal limits and the cop kept double checking only to let me go without a ticket. I'm sure he was disappointed and was looking forward to pinning me with a ticket up to $287 per window.
Yikes!
I agree!!! Worst case use a windshield shade if you don't want to or can't tint your windshield
It the sun at the right light it'll look darker, looks good tho. I don't mind exactly what the law is but rule of thumb is 50% max if you never want be pulled over. I'm ok with taking the risk at 35%CA tint law sucks! Car now tinted, but you can barely tell. 70/55 Suntek CXP & Solar Gaurd UP80 windshield.

have to consider the windshield too...it's the biggest piece of glass, and lets in the most heat. maybe go CR90 for the windshield.
All good C...its all about once comfort level.It the sun at the right light it'll look darker, looks good tho. I don't mind exactly what the law is but rule of thumb is 50% max if you never want be pulled over. I'm ok with taking the risk at 35%
Dang! your car is shiny AF!!I have 3M crystalline 40 on all the windows and crystalline 70 down the front windshield on mines. It looks super dark like 5% thanks to having black interior but it's more like 35% metered out.
Wow...I might reconsider nowThanks! 3 layers of ceramic coating enhances the gloss a lot.
3-layer is 5 year warranty or lifetime?
It'll last up to 3-5 years with proper maintenance. It's not bulletproof tho. It will still scratch but resist micro abrasions. It will also etch with sitting water and bird droppings. It's more of a gloss enhancer. On the plus side it beads/repels water like crazy and you don't have to wax it for 3-5 years. Just make sure your installer does a thorough decontamination and paint correction. It'll definitely make that Aegean Blue pop!Wow...I might reconsider now
