Got a new windshield and all the windows tinted

I'm proud: Last tank I got 37.6 miles per gallon!
Anyway, here are pics of the tint. How does it look? I like it! I got a sun strip on the top and bottom of the windshield. Just like my last Prizm. It's like driving in widescreen format! Haha.
I'm thinking about painting the door pillars black to match the windows. Anyone have pics of this done?
At least it's pretty clean under the hood....

Haha the Prizm has a Delco compressor, so I think all the ac stuff is different. I got the hubcaps for something different. You don't see them on many Prizms! Haha I'm keeping my eyes out for a set of stock alloys, but don't see them hardly ever.
Another thing I did recently was connect a 2nd horn. I just bent the brackets and connected both of them together. Much louder than the single stock horn. I should take a pic. They fit just right between radiator and grille.

tint looks nice and fresh, what % is it and how much did you pay? fyi NEVER use windex or anything like that to clean the inside of your windows. very quickly youll see that black shiny nice tint turn to crap purple

I use Invisible Glass by a company called "Stoner" actually. It works really well and is safe for tint.
I had them put 5% limo on the sun strips and the back doors' glass. They put 35% on the front doors' glass and the back window has 20%. Sounds weird, but looks good. You can still see out at night, so parking isn't such a hassle.
They use LLUMAR tint film with lifetime warranty. I've never had it bubble or fade on anything so far.
