I dont think that is normal, I dont really notice it. I think you have to better describe it.

The guy I talked to for the shop I was looking at recommended CharCool by Madico. Anyone have experience with this brand?

My back window has a strange effect with regards to the headlights showing through. It's like they are visually broken into pieces, vertically, because of the tint and the defrost wires in the glass. Is this normal?

Completely normal for aftermarket tint. You will get used to it.

?? What

...for one Infiniti DOES have factory tint, and actually it is higher than most manufacturers at 75%. Second, NO ONE comes tinted anything more then that from the factory. Unless it is the rear windows of an SUV or something. ??? ..unless your not in the US?

If you look at my prior post in this thread, that is what I have had and my guy mainly uses on all the high end stuff he does. Suppose to be great stuff.

My father's Dodge Grand Caravan has it's sides and rear factory tinted. My G is at 35% and I'm willing to bet the van is equal to that or higher. PT Cruisers have a dark rear tint as well. The Infiniti tint is barely there at 75%, it's pretty much just their heat-reduction tint, correct?
