that's exactly what i have on mine right now, but it's not for the looks, for the 45+ temp in here.
i'm removing it as soon as the weather cools down

I think 5% all around except 35% front, will almost have the same look.

my friend used to have the same tint, 5% all around on his black 645.

thanks for the comments guys. once again - i have never had a problem seeing things on the road.. people, cars, signs, etc. maybe its because i am used to driving my cars like this. i would understand how some people say it wreckless, but i suppose having any tint on the front could be called wreckless.....

Wow... I hope you're a VERY safe driver at night. I wouldn't want to be crossing the road when you're driving. Everything except the front windshield looks good. That's cutting it very close. You must have nightvision or something. Anyways, be safe!

Gotta be honest here, coolness and legality aside, that is unsafe for you and the others on the road.

I've always had 5% on all windows on all my cars. I'm REALLY disappointed in how light 5% looks on my IS. Not sure if it's because it's SGM and all the other cars were white but during the day you can see in and it's driving me crazy.

I'm not sure if I should do the windshield, never did that before or go over the 5% with more tint.

Yours looks great!

it'd be cool if you can tint everything 0% and then inside is like a virtual representation of what's outside hahaha (like screens where the windows should be lol)

In Southern Cali I think it would take about 1 car ride to the store before you got pulled over. Props to you though.

That's what I was thinking. AR must have some really lax tint laws or nice police. Try that around here and more often than not, guns would be drawn after they pulled you over.
