Hey all,

Just got my windows tinted with all metal tint (no dyes, guaranteed against fading). I got darkest in back and one shade up in front. It is not a limo tint, but is actually just right. It keeps out 99% of UV rays and has something like 51% heat absorbtion. Made a MAJOR difference inside the car, I no longer gasp for air when getting in after the car has been sitting all day in the sun. Also, for my dash, I had them do something a tad illegal here, but hey, I don't think anyone will mind. It is very illegal to have anything covering your windshield. However, I had the tint shop install a CLEAR 99% UV protectant. Should help save my dash and keep the car a tad cooler, and it is invisible to any type of law enforcement.

Just letting you all know, its the best money I've ever spent.

I've heard that this type of tint can interfere with radar detectors, especially V1's. Let us know
if you find that to be the case.
