Just tinted windows!

Oh man i just finished tinting my front door windows and it is so much better looking. I now have 5% tint all the way around. It is crazy dark andlooks soo good. It is so damn hard to see at night. i am having trouble. I can't even tell what color a vehicle is or if people are in cars beside me at night. Tonite i was driving beside someone and the figure waved...so ihad to roll down my window to see who it was. How the hell do youguys get used to this?

I never got use to my Legend's 5%. I always had to guess if something was behind me or I'd just see outlines, on the teg I went with 15% all the way around and 50% on the windshield, it's a lot easier to see out of.

I got 20% all the way around, and it is fairly hard to see anything at night. As others have said, I can tell if there is a car, but rarely know what type of car or what color etc. So... I just cruise at night with my windows down if I feel like seeing, or go into "stealth mode" with windows up

I thought it was illegal to tint the windshield? Also, why would you tint that part?
