    Nope, it looks cleaner without. If it were a solid color (red, white, black, etc.) I might be swayed, but yours in its current state looks classy and simple.

      Yes I think it would look great but you need to paint your trim black first, then it'll look great, plus summer time is around the corner.

        It would look nice if you went with something not to dark like 35%.

          I voted no, reason being is I like to see as well as possible and besides being dark even the very best add distortion.

            it's a regional thing,
            people not from HOT SUN states really don't understand it...
            it is a neccessity here as is Texas I suppose..
            they make a really good ceramic tint that actually lowers the interior of the car significantly...
            check it out...
            I agree with not going limo on it but a tasteful shade is nice...
            distortion? only if not done correctly...
            I have had limo on earlier cars and you have to learn to look where to back out before you get into the car at night...

              Also, a light tint would probably look pretty good.

                        I think the editing made it look darker than it is. It's 30% tint.

                          If you are going to tint it, it has to be dark, and by that I mean not legal. Otherwise you won't have enough contrast to make it stand out correctly. I for my alpineweiss I went with 15% in the front and 5% in the rear. if you're gonna stay legal then I say don't do it, it'll probably look worse

                              Well...regionally speaking, it does get very hot in the Summer where I am. But at both work & home, my car is covered.

                              If I go to a mall or something, I'll definitely spring for a parking garage. Otherwise, my car really doesn't spend an extended amount of time parked outside.
