    Not sure I understand what you are asking...can I see a motorcycle, or can the motorcycle see me? Either way, yes.

    This is what 70% looks like

    Seems like a reasonable price. I’d go for it. Mine was $460, but I had them do the sunroof as well.

    If your anywhere near Arlington check out ZTint. Owner is Bruce. Has done all my work for 28 years. You can check out several vehicles that have front ceramic.

    I wouldn't put anything on the front that reduces your visibility, 70%, nope. If its a clear ceramic that just blocks uv's, go for it.

    As far as the sides/rear go, I've had 20% on my last 3 cars, looks great, is pretty dark, but not so dark as to where cops will write you a ticket. I will say backing up at night on a dark road is a bit tricky, but I just rolled down my windows and used the mirrors and was fine.

    I have 50% ceramic tint on mine.....I don't have any issues with it whatsoever. The first week or so, I noticed that my auto headlights would come on in some odd situations like under an overpass or low clouds, but then, I think that my sensor/computer adapted to the tint and it hasn't done anything of the sorts since then. I had a metallic tint on my SUV's windshield and that totally affected my sensor. I had to remove it within days and have them install non-metallic ceramic tint. That fixed the problem right away. The cheap tints will definitely affect the sensors in your vehicle. :)

    "Unicuique suum” I suppose. I will say that my sunglasses are significantly darker than 70% though.

    No worries at all. They had a similar graphic at the tiny shop that I used to pick the tint level I wanted. Much better than the scraps they had laying around to judge how dark things would seem with different levels.

    Edit. Tint not tiny. Stupid autocorrect.
