15% windshield

I only have 35% on the sides, all the shops around here will do because of the law.

How is it at night?
Love the look

i just used a dupli-color acrylic enamel. Since those rings are such a b*tch to keep clean, i keep it cheap and leave them flat black because they will just get scraped again. and you can't get the chrome off either so you have to paint over it!!!
