windshield tint problem

is there anyone on here with their windshield tinted? i put tint on my w/s and it came out blurry, i parked it in the sun for the day and it started givin me a headache. i thought it was the film but the guy at the tint shop claimed my w/s was defective. i find that hard to believe and had him tint it again with a new roll of film and i went out to the desert and let it sit in the 100* weather ( i was goin out there anyways i did not do this just for my tint) and the same thing happened. so i went to another place that is known for havin the best tint and the guy looked at my w/s and said that it is from the curvature of the w/s and no matter what film i apply it will always look blurry. sup? any1 help me with this herr?

Wrong. Check on your info.

I responded to your thread on the other site... Mine is great, and a few people on here that saw my car at the Seattle meet in August should be able to vouche for me. It looks just like the tint on the other windows; a couple spots that are different if you know what to look for, but if not, you won't notice them.

Well, in Cali it's illegal, but in other states it is legal to make it brighter, but not darker.

Anyway... when my window's were tinted I notice the same headlight/blurry thing... but it went away after about a week or so. Either that or my eyes have adjusted

Front Windshield

I Guess I Got Use To t But When I First Got It It Was Like Normal Tint Give It A Week And It'yll Go Away... Im Pretty Sure My Eyes Got Use To It Though... For All You's That Dont Have Your Winshield Tinted And Want It, I Suggest Dont Get It Cause When It Rains Its Very Hard To See...I Kinda Regret It But Ahhh Whatever It Looks Good No one Can See In At Night...I Like Privacy
