Coop for what you have in mind 5% tint on all windows and a sun shade on the windshield the best way to go about it

Right, the sun is worst directly overhead or close to that, lights coming in low or straight in are not blocked at all. still more to modify on it, though.
Sat outside all last Summer with the front of car facing the sun with a windshield shade in place, and that was a hot stretch of days!

It's the cloudy weather that makes it look darker then it actually is. My 20% looks much darker when its cloudy outside

I was going to do the Vette up front at one point. then time/money ran short. and needed new brakes ASAP so just got stock rotors and pads. then painted the calipers/brackets black.
in due time I plan to do the Vette up front and rear
cost alone for Vette up front is around $500 (calipers, camaro brackets, pads, impala rotors)
at the time I got 4 rotors, pads, caliper paint. for tad under $300

Yeah It's easier to buy as you go along too, at least for me it is. I'm not the best at saving.
