Phantom Black with Huper Optik 30
OP, nice car and tint
I just got 20% ceramic all around, 90% crystalline on the entire windshield and honestly I dont even notice the difference (visual-wise) from untinted. I dont know how much darker 80% will be compared to the 90% but I imagine its not a lot. My 20/90 combo is totally fine at night so OP's plan to do 80/30 should be fine too I assume. BTW, this tint is also radar detector and e-pass transponder friendly. There were concerns raised whether it might disrupt signal but it doesnt.
edit: the crystalline has 3M prints across the windshield for authenticity purposes I think. I was told I can rub it off with water or alcohol. It better come off!

Great feedback, thanks! I might go with Air Blue instead if there are 3M marks on the tint - I understand the authenticity reason but seems like something the dealer would remove during the install? I was concerned about authenticity of my tint during the install but Huper Optik contacted me directly with proof of warranty and details a week or so later so I'm sure 3M could do something similar. I was researching radar detector issues today as I am considering an Escort 9500ix - no more concerns now :P (didn't think about e-pass friendly either - assuming same deal as we have here "Good 2 Go Pass" for the tolls)
heres a quick look at the 3M print.
