Just dropped my G off to get tinted...

...15% all the way around, except for the windshield 50%. I was debating on doing the windshield 35% Platinum but thought it'd be too dark. My G is MW w/ Graphite interior w/ Flat Black G30's on the way. What do you guys think?

That car is going to be dark as hell. Don't do the windshield dark or you're not going to be able to see. By windshield, you mean just the strip at the top, not the whole windshield, right?

i had 20% on my windshield and 20% all around. my tinter is great and used 3M metallic tint and I saw fine out the windshield. it's the same as looking out the rearview windshield at nighttime. it's clear still except on dark lit side streets you might have an issue.


i have a bad astigmatism so I have a doctor's note for my windshield to be tinted.

Wow. I have 20% all around (nothing on the windshield of course) and it's really dark. Good luck.

I had 35% on my Audi windshield it wasn't too dark at night but when it rains hard at night it is difficult to see. I got tired of being harassed so haven't done the windshield on either Infiniti.
