Window tint/brow question

Thinking about tinting and may have a brow put on the windshield. I don't usually do the brow but this car has such a raked windshield that it lets a lot of sun come in. Gets very hot on sunny days. Anyone have any pics or comments about how it will look on this car? Sure don't want to put car into the redneck class , thanks

Same thing for me I have been looking for something that is legal in my state. 6 inches is the allowable.

Its the first car owned that I nearly always have to use the sunshade all the time.

The rake angle is pronounced and the glare is very pronounced!

The windshield has a tint but nowhere near enough to handle the glare!

Any ideas out there?

I've seen some AMG's that have windshield banners of them. They do it at my local dealership. It has the AMG logo in the middle that's white and the background is black. It's printed on perforated paper So you can still see stop lights.

Ron Jr? lol reminds me of that **** star ron jeremy. The dude came to plymouth, went out clubbing, fingered girls *on* the dancefloor and then took 3 students back to the hotel. Anyway, what I wanted to say was... your car looks sick.

Ron Jr,
Thanks for the pics. Shows me how it will look. That is probably what I'm going to do with mine. May go 25-30% on the brow, 35% on the sides and back glass.

I just have a question for that, we get factory tinted windows and headlights for our C63s, right? If I gonna tint another shield on them, will there be any problems if we take it out later?
