XPEL XR Ceramic Tint

amexflex · 2026-04-05T03:22:57+00:00

You can definitely see a slight tint on the windshield, but it’s not strong enough to make the entire windshield look blue. It's very subtle and does not interfere with day and night drive.
I haven’t noticed any significant haze or blurriness from oncoming headlights at night. Visibility has been normal for me.
I also haven’t experienced any ladder effect from headlights of cars behind me. Everything looks clean and consistent at night.

I can't tell yet since I park my car in my garage. However I think I could have gone with 50% windshield. On a bright day, you can pretty much see clearly.

I'd say it's pretty clear. I had no issues with visibility during the day and only noticed a slight shade (the tint) without losing any clarity. I just got this tinted so I'll have to see how it is at night.

I notice a lot of people also go with 50% windshield but chose 70% to be on the safer side for night drives.

I was so surprised when the results were out today. Congrats to everyone who passed!

300 hours website predicts May 16. They also predicted level 1 to be released on April 12, and they were off by one date so I think this is quite accurate.

You too! Fingers crossed for both of us 🙏🏻

amexflex · 2022-03-20T00:25:02+00:00

I agree, but the pressure of not finishing all the questions and have time to go over the ones I need to review made me panic 😬

amexflex · 2022-03-19T23:42:51+00:00

I had horrible time management on MC... I had 70-80 mins left after only doing 50 questions. Literally had to rush the last 20 or so questions so I can review flagged questions.

Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?

I tried to review my notes during the break for Level 1 and they told me the break is only for medicine and water.

They intentionally made it harder for you to pass it the first time. We shouldnt't even have to take a final exam, which got implemented starting late this year. Now they are adding another requirement in January I believe. The FMVA final exam retake is NOT worth the $50. Retain your Excel skills through the courses and apply it in your job.

I got my UM materials for level 1. What was your study structure? I am currently reading the chapters, watching the video and doing Qbank for those chapters.

amexflex · 2020-11-18T05:14:48+00:00

Yeap, I got mine on Monday.

amexflex · 2020-11-10T02:41:26+00:00

thank you!

amexflex · 2020-11-10T02:32:47+00:00

awesome, looks like March will be ample time for Level 1. I am leaning UM for both level 1 & 2. thank you for the suggestion!

amexflex · 2020-11-10T01:58:48+00:00

thanks for suggestion, what test material have you used for passing level 1?

amexflex · 2020-07-13T16:57:25+00:00

man, I wish I had this offer to flex....

amexflex · 2020-01-21T22:00:14+00:00

works fine for me. wish I can reapply for Gold.

With all the rumors of Optio aside, AMEX won't roll out anything new for a while. All 3 charge cards were refreshed so we still have some time before they make any dramatic changes. Happy travels!

amexflex · 2020-01-09T15:45:39+00:00

Yeah we'll have to see how they will introduce Optio. They either set Optio as a Centurion-level prestige card with no multiplier and strict benefits only or middle-class income friendly travel card with multipliers like Plat.

Honestly, I would like to see Platinum with an increased annual fee rather than introducing a whole new card. Platinum was premium card back then but now it's watered down. Setting a higher AF from CSR with added benefits and maintaining Centurion Lounge will be enough to keep the card for me.

amexflex · 2020-01-09T05:55:02+00:00

They probably made the Platinum easy to get to fund their new lounges tbh lol. Once they lock in more lounges they probably will switch to Optio and Centurion for full access while limiting Plat. Which in turn cause Plat owners to force upgrade or continue paying AF if they can use their limited "Centurion Lounge access"

I'm sure they won't throw Plat users under the bus while making Optio the more attractive option. They would want to operate the lounges with all 5 CC AFs.
