    Black and clear is the best way to go:

    I can scratch, rub, spray solutions on these all I want and they do not come off. I can wax them with the rest of my truck. I have been through VHT Nightshades and the Pactra window tint, they both suck.

    Problem with lighting and the internet is that it will not show up the same way on your monitor. Cameras also have something called auto exposure, which will totally make everything whack versus seeing it in person.

    Good point. Well then based on your experience, do you think the covers let enough light through or do the block most of it. I'm guessing they suck compared to black and clear, but being able to remove them is kind of a big advantage to me
