Is this too blue?

I got crystalline tint put on my windshield the other day so the cops wouldn't give me trouble and the car would stay cool, but I have to say, I'm not sold on how blue it looks. I think it's the sky reflecting off of it, so on overcast days it should look awesome but for now I don't know if I should keep it.

Input?

Thanks! I feel a little better now. It's an adjustment I guess. And yeah, trying my best to stay away from the work truck that parks beside me haha

If you hadn't bring it up, I wouldn't have noticed anything special with your windshield at all! Looks good to my eyes!

I don't really see a difference between non-tinted and this. It's not limo tint. I'm doing 1% in the rears, and 75% in the front so I'm not breaking the laws.

Mine is 45% ceramic all around (meters at 36, NC limit is 35) and crystalline 70 up front (meters 65).

I definitely wish the windows were darker but they look pretty good I think.
