Hmph, didn't have a choice in my case -- windshield cracked, no untinted windshields available. Not as defined across the bottom as Amy's, and lighter from inside but it sure looks dark from outside.

BTW: Is that sentence above gramaticly correct? (sorry for my try make that English lesson wink.gif )

No more replicas... This is evolution... This isSS-four:)________[Featured Celica of 6gc.net @ 2010]_________
I don't understand why they make them against the law? If you have your visor down then that protrudes further than your stripe. I have my visor down all the time, is that against the law? NO!!!

You can get bits that join the visors together so that you can block out the sun when it goes into the centre mirror area, so if you have that, plus both visors down ALL the time, then that would obstruct your vision alot more than a stripe that you can see through.

Get it sorted out mr law thinker upper man!! (or ms law thinker upper woman!! )haha
personally don't like it, i just hate the sudden stop from tint at the top. my friend has it in his suburban and i HATE riding with him lookin thru that windshield

hmmm well I have only had mine a couple of days...so far no problems! I went to the same place that tinted my windows 2 years ago & it job still looks great! So im not too worried
looks good!

and by the way... black + CF for the win!
yeah i personally don't like it either, but hey... everyone's got their own taste, and should make their car their own one way or another.

Nope, no problems with it peeling and I did all the tinting myself so it is fairly easy.
