Do you have a big picture like the one above, but with the windows and top up? I want to see just how dark it really is. Looks great though.

Yeah, I will get some. Seems like clouds are on the windows in all of my pictures. I will wait for a nice day to get some. Orlando has rain the next few days. When we get a sunny day I will take a few shots for you.

Did the tint drop your temperature so you don't have to turn your A/C as high?

The tint definitely keeps the interior of the car cooler. I have noticed a drastic difference from when I did not have it to when I got it. Not only does it keep it a little cooler, it also keeps UV rays out which will help keep the interior looking nicer. Leather should not crack as quick, etc. Topping off the list though, it just looks betters.

Definitely, that is why I got my Sc tinted (too bad the A/C doesn't work so I couldn't really see if it was cooler or not). I don't understand how the previous owner had it untinted for so long. It tore up the interior, and now I have to replace a lot of it.

Default Silver/metallic tint images

I need to get tint, and I want to see what silver tint would look like. My SC is silver, anyone got any pics they could post up? I've only seen one around here.
