Any legal issues expected with the blackout tint?

I think almost any level of tint helps accentuate the overall body lines.

Same here, white with tint. We bought ours with the windows already done but were planning on doing it anyway. If you're on the fence I don't recommend it. Car is nearly impossible to see out of, especially at night, and especially out of the ridiculously tiny passenger-side mirror. We wanted it to cut down on the sun in the interior, not for looks, which it does help with but IMHO not worth the loss of visibility. One day I'm going to scrape the passenger side down a parked car and then looks will go out the window.

I expect to get pulled over, knock on wood I don't, but so far cops here in Michigan seem pretty lenient, considering I was at a red next to me!

I have contacts so that helps my vision quite a lot, but if you are on the fence I completely agree! I cannot see my side mirrors at night, luckily I have blind spot assist which is my third eye basically. It isn't completely bad at night, since I have the full LED headlights they do help with spotting curbs when turning since there is a separate light that turns on when I make a right or left to light my way. Otherwise doing 5% around, I couldn't imagine without the technology I have in my car!

Thanks! Yes, the pano roof really does accentuate the lines of the car and help give the car (especially a white or lighter colored one) a contrast that is very striking.
One thing I hate is when guys paint their roofs black to try to mimic a pano roof. It looks so tacky, especially since you can see the cutout for the sunroof. Glass and paint do not look the same.

The pano with the white just makes the car look so much more beautiful and sporty, I wanted to wrap my roof, but my buddy with a '11 E350 has his roof wrapped and it does not look anywhere near as nice if it was glass. Next Benz will for sure have the pano.
