i also tinted my windows to 5% dont have any pix of the instal but it was a pain in the ass gettin the back window back in the big ass boot and for the front windows i took them out and did them the right was and it turned out wayy better you cant see shit through 5%

wow, good work so far! only thing i'd tell you is to re-route your exhaust so it isn't blowing right on your diff. could end up badly. best to get the exhaust out from under the truck alltogether.
