@01Z0H6 What did you replace your AC with? I have been following some other forums where the discussion on replacement compressors and seemingly blah AC performance seems to be the norm. Hopefully it was a direct drop in replacement or did you need to make any changes to drive belt size or AC system line placements?
What tint did you use? I opted for ceramic as it seemed to be the best for heat/UV reduction and didn't mess with cell/gps/toll tags the way metallic does.
