I've got a yellow OZ and I'm getting the windows tinted. Another OZ around here, gray, got his done with a touch of reflective. I think it looked good. I vote go for it!!

tinted limo rear and back .. front was medium-dark but of course i got ticketed (CA sucks) so it's off now..
my car looks gay with all the limo tint rear and back and clears up front... i wouldn't recommend that setup.
