Question about tinting

Anybody know the answer to this question?

My brother and i were having a argument about whether or not
the CL has a factory tint. He says that there is a greenish type tint that comes stock on the car. I say There isn't. I think he's a little cheap and doesn't want me to spend the money on the tint.

Let me know if anybody knows

Thanks all

Yes there is a slight green hue to the factory glass but it is not a substitute for aftermarket tint. I always get 35% tint on my cars and it a happy medium between privacy and visability

...depends on where you live. In SoCal, you shouldn't pay more than 150 bucks or so, up here where I live, I paid 240 I think. Supply and Demand.....

Yes I got 35% all around. No problems with police yet although it is not legal here. Don't know about the laws where you are. I paid $110 but it will very depending on where you live

It's called solar control glass. I had another car that had it too. That's why it has a greenish tint. At dusk the car does look like it has tinted windows. But I needed something more. I have 15%.
