    I was driving into the sun this morning with horrible glare off the hood, but I could not ever consider putting a sticker or painting it a matte. Show me you have better reflections than this one. Can't wait to see ya'lls response.

    My truck rarely has a hood glare...only last a few days before it either gets rained on or it sees dirt!

    I’ll have to get a picture tomorrow but with a white hood and the late afternoon...glare cooks your eyeballs. I’m about to wrap it black or tint the windshield.

    I love watching the clouds reflecting off my scoop as I drive to work in the morning

    The cement doesn’t really offer much of a glare but love that pic though

    Thanks. I drove all the way up the 395 to Independence looking for a good spot to shoot milkyway/persid meteor shower only to have those clouds turn to a grey mush that blocked all the nightsky in the Owens Valley (haze from fires contributed). I got a few cool daytime shots though.
