That reminds me of those polarized sunglasses from the 1980s!

Not my style, but it's also not my car. Glad you're enjoying it!

Different. When I first saw it, I thought your windows were fogged up.

Since we're talking about tint....has anyone tried the Huber Optik ceramic tint or heard anything good or bad about it? It's quite expensive ($400) to put on the Vette, but it's all the rave over here where it's 100+ degrees almost all summer long.

If you like it then that's all all that matters, but you ask what I thought...I think it degrades your otherwise beautiful vette(especially the engine bay). I see these thints on ricers and everyday mazdas, Toyotas, and even trucks where I'm from. Sorry, thumbs down

p.s.you still have a nice vette though
