Default Window Tinting for the Z06!!!!!!!!!

Have many of you tinted your windows on your Z06? When I got the car the second thing I thought about (after the power and torque) that it is too bright in here. So I went ahead and got some dark windows! Anyone else?

Yep, 35%. Anything less would get me stopped for sure. But it made a BIG difference in the look of the car. :cool:

Merry Christmas all,

I will see if I can find what brand tinting I got!
The guy did a really awesome job with it!

It is pricey. Around $175 bucks. I shopped around my area and
it was pretty consistent. The reason why it is expensive is because
the windows especially the back are very curved.

I watched him put them on. He looked like Michaelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel.
