Default Black C4 tinted windows???

I have a 1991 Black Corvette. I just recently got her painted. She was always black but I repainted the whole thing. I am interested in getting my rear hatch window tinted with 20% tint. I never have the top on and the windows are always down, that's why I am just thinking of doing the back. Does anyone have any picture of their black C4 with the rear window tinted with their windows down and top off so I can get an idea of what mine would look like? Thanks everyone!!

Here are some old ones. I recently put on a set of 2007 C6 chrome rims and purchased a Toledo Pro 2 3/4" cowl hood. I also painted the calipers blue because I didn't want to go the red or yellow route.

Wow, that tint makes the car look so much better. I wish I could do my side windows but unfortunately they are all scratched and don't have the money to buy new windows. I am looking forward to getting my rear window done. What percent of light is that..20% or 30%? Pictures look great! Thanks for all your help. By the way, my name is Jeremy too. I saw your profile info!

That looks really clean. Love the set up you got there! I have the fuel injected L98. It's funny seeing a carburetor on there. Looks like you have a MSD ignition on there. What are they made to do exactly? And 5%? Wow! Didn't know they went that low! Looks great

Sorry top is on, but the tint makes it look better in my opinion.
