Default Request for pics: Black Roadster w/tint

I'm debating tinting the windows of my '05 Super Black roadster and would like to see pictures of a car like mine with tint. I'm most interested in how it looks with top down/windows up, as I do a fair amount of cruising in this configuration.

Thanks in advance,
Jen

You should just tint the windows for 2 reasons
1. It keeps the car cool during warm days
2. Would be theives will be needing to look harder inside the car
IMO

Hmmm. I thought that's why I got the car with cruise control.

Anyhow, anyone have any pictures? - Of the roadster with tint, people!

Thanks! I'd thought it might look silly - would actually probably look cool on a black car. (Not that your DB is anything to sneeze at - looks really hot!)

If anyone has any other pics of tinted roadsters, I'd love to see them!

If you wouldn't mind too greatly, I would really appreciate it! Also, what % tint is yours?

The tint is 20% i think, the installer said if I wanted anything darker I would have to go with limo tint.

Hey aznnblk do you have some pics of the front of your car with those headlight covers? I have been thinking of buying them myself.

Thanks
