I am also fully aware...wife wanted "not as dark" % on this Y but even then the front 15% (us too) look like 55% at times. The far back reaching windshield on top of the refelctive white can really challenge tint on this car (from the front)
Mine is not, I use a lot of Jax Wax products, but specifically this one for the gloss/shine. Works great on all colors.

I use Turtle wax hybrid ceramic wet wax. Stuff is amazing for the price.
I don't have conclusive numbers but the range definitely takes a noticeable hit (even with just one bike).
Holy moly, that is sick! Wheels and suspension is one of the first things I will do.
Glad to help! I vinyl wrapped the standard hubcap with pre-cut satin black strips from “EV Wraps”. Cost about $60 so totally worth it. However, it’s quite labor intensive. Took me about 45 minutes to an hour per wheel. And having a bit of vinyl wrapping experience definitely helps.
Many thanks for the info - that's a great job, well worth the effort I would say. Just not sure I'd get as good results
I’m definitely not a vinyl expert but it came out pretty good. I like that I still get the most range with a bit more aggressive look. I would say if you don’t demand perfection then it could be a job worth tackling. Take care.Many thanks for the info - that's a great job, well worth the effort I would say.

You can get a similar look using Plasti Dip, and it would probably be easier than trying to apply vinyl if that's not your cup of tea. The pictures I posted above are the stock gemini aero covers with just the lighter silver parts Plasti Dipped black.
