tint and tranny question...

#1 tint - is it true that if you get your windows tinted the car will decrease in resale value? (im talking about regular black tint, 35%...i live in NY) I heard this from a few sources and im not sure

#2 tranny - will power braking kill auto trannies? Ive done it only a few times, depress the brake and rev the gas only to about 1.5-2k rpm then take off

as it goes for the tints, basically whatever you add to your car that if after market will decrease the car's value in the eyes on the dealer buying the car. But if you are trying to sell the car to a person , it wont, it will depend on the persons likes and dislikes.
as for the tranny, yes it will hurt it, the nissan auto tranny is not known for its strong nature and this will hurt your car.
