I like it in the pictures with no tint but I have seen them in person with tint and like them better that way. I am taking the tint off mine and I like it much better with out it, however my windows are the square ones. My girlfriend likes it with the tint much better.

I like them both, did the tint affect your ability to look through the glass any? (good or bad)

That picture I tinted the windows in photoshop to see what it would look like. What do you think?

I tinted the windows on my 312 and it made it look like a whole new boat.....but I did it on that one since it made the dark gray dash a lot cooler to the touch. If I did it to this boat, it would be pretty much a cosmetic change. The graphic design does contain a black stripe in it so it might look pretty bad-ass along with the polished stainless windshield frame. Since I went with "LIMO" black tint on the 312, it was fairly difficult to see through, and really hard at night.

Thanks for the comments and the input......still not sure.

I like the tint. I've been thinking about tinting my 357. Thought I might the only one thinking about this stuff. How much did it cost when you did the last one? I assume you did it with film so, how long does it last before it shows wear?

Tint,Looks sharp. I have no windshield on my 357 just a windscreen(black). Gives it a different look.
