Nope... But I've got a friend who told me I should do that, but it's only street legal to tint the visor area in my state (NC) and not the entire front windshield.

Glass Tiger Tinting in Liburn did a good job for me!

It's amazing they showed it to me when I got mine. Shoulda done it. Cops wouldn't have a clue.

That would be sick on yours with the color you have | I was pulled over twice in 8 months with my 20% tint. First time, cop gave me a warning, and the second cop wrote me a $150 ticket. After that, I took it to Elite Auto Spa here in ATL where it was originally tinted, got them to take off the 20 and replace with 35. You can tell it's a little lighter, but I still have my portholes and rear windshield with 20.
Tinting your front windshield would be a cop magnet, IMO.

Got pulled over in my jag for dark tint. Granted it was 3% all around so the Cop had a reason lol. Paid $110 ticket still didn't get it removed though. Have 5% all around on the stang. Don't really get in trouble unless I go out of town in the car. (most local cops know me already lol, not sure if thats a good or bad thing).

The guy always had an excuse as to why he couldn't do it. I called Glass tiger first, and just got a good impression, but Elite was my seccond choice.
Anyway, I love my tint and can't stand not having the windshield done up! No issues with my 20% its all legal. I'm thinking about the clear stuff. I don't need to be any darker. But something to help the glare.
