What do you mean save my life? From getting pulled over by the PO PO ?
no what he means is driving at night. i had 10 percents on my old acura and it was a bitch at drive at night cause you couldnt see anything out the windows. all you could see was the headlights. so def dont get too dark or i know you will regret it like i did.

Sounds like you had 10% on windshield? I think any tint on windshield is far too impractical/unsafe. JMO
I went with 20%, lower than I originally had considered, because the stone interior it very light. But lately I've been thinking about re-doing it lighter, or removing altogether. Car has started to look too blacked out for me, esp when the darker wheels went on...

I think it looks good! My car is grey so it won't look too "black" if i get a darker tint.
Def will contribute to a peaceful driving experience with close to legal tint. What do you mean save my life? From getting pulled over by the PO PO ?
Being pulled over should not be your main concern. From a safety standpoint driving at night with illegal tint could increase the likelihood of an accident up to and including loss of life, even your own.
Yes, those thousands of posts on the subject often defend the practice because “it keeps the car cooler,” or “it cuts down glare,” and my favorite, “I can see just fine at night.” But in reality that’s not the reason most owners install illegal tints. They just want their car to look “cool.” IMO that’s not a good enough reason to take such chances.

Shade of tint has squat to do with heat rejection, that's a function of the quality of the tint. You can have untinted window film and block heat. I bought a better quality of window film to keep Houston heat out of my car. But I have 20% tint because I want to look cool.
And honestly, also to give you a little bit extra to wring your hands over.
BTW, I'm in PA, too. Never had anyone flag me for the tint on yearly inspections. Also note, there is no legal tint in PA---OEM only.
Yep you beat me to it. PA kinda sucks in this regard, however I think its often meant for officer safety. It's hard enough to not know what they are walking up to during a traffic stop let alone when they can't see anything inside the car. As much as I'd love to go 20% b/c I think it'd look nice w/Vibrant Red I'm thinking a good quality 30% is what I'm leaning toward. Even then I might need to keep my parole officer badge handy...just in case.
It'd be nice if Infiniti would have done some tinting from the factory...
