anyway, get chrome mirrors, chrome headlight things, AND chrome bumpers. ALL PROBLEMS SOLVED.
I'm not. It wouldn't be dark, just something to block UV.
I'm probably not going to convert it back to chrome. If the window trim was OG chrome, I could see it, but not with the black it currently has. I really like the asymmetrical look, so at this point I'm leaning away from any tinting. I reached out to a tint shop to see if I have any options, but I haven't heard back yet. I suspect I could go illegal, since there's no inspections in the state... not sure I want to deal with finding a shop that'll do it and the potential hassle of a ticket though.
Add to my list of things to do is replacing the sun visors. The foam in them has degraded and they're all swoled up and crunchy.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
