window tinting

hi,
Before i go to walmart to get window tint, i just want to make sure.
I have a clean line crack on my skyline r34 rear windshield, so if place tint on both sides of the windshield, it will be less visible( not visible at all i hope).

thx
mike

Re: window tinting

I can't imagine tint film on the outside looking good- I use it only on the inside.

I doubt tinting the inside would do much to hide the crack- but a new clear piece would probably be the best fix.

I agree, see if you can replace the windsheild instead.

Re: window tinting

Perhaps dipping the windshield in future (floor wax) will make the crack less visible? It might even "glue" the crack in place if you are gentle when working on it later.
