Default Reflective Tint Question

I need to tint my 06xb. It's polar white and I want mirrored tint but am I willing to give up F.M.? I rarely listen to it but i'd hate to lose it. Putting a new antenna won't be too difficult but i'm curious if its nessasary. Anyone . . . . . . . . ? I'm also worried because of the variance of the foctory smoked glass. Has anyone seen or have pics of an xb with mirror tint or any factory smoked glass with this added?

no point in even using reflective tint, it's not going to show up behind the xB windows. it would look kinda stupid when all done, the fronts would be shiny and the backs would black. you're gonna have to buy all new clear glass if you want them all to be shiny

WAY too much to even bother. Someone on here imported the bB glass so that he could have stock non-tinted glass. Not worth it, and reflective glass is tacky. Leave that to the civics...

I believe reflective tint is illegal in many/most states.

yes, true, however my box isn't teal blue with a gray flare kit, oversized purse handle on the back, plastic spinner hub caps and "Jalisco" on the window.
