Most states allow you to tint the top 1/3 of your windshield.
As far as how it looks? Well, you gotta live with it. But if ya don't like it, ya can always scrape it back off.

I now this sounds stupid, but a lot of auto stores sell plastic tinted strips that apply to the front and you can peel it off later without the blade or soap (I had one on my first car).
It's not a sticker, just rubbery plastic that looks like tint.
Go ahead... Start your laughing, I deserve it.

Well the guy told me if I wanted he can do it for like 20 bucks cause I went through him today.
Came out very nice I got the darkest tint on the rear and those little tiny windows u cant open on the coupe model. On the side I got the medium/dark tint. Its legal but with the factory tint it makes it illegal.
I'll get some pics with my red calipers (next week getting em) if I ever get a damn digital camera, anyone got tips on a good one of those lol
