Front tint banners are pretty lame IMHO.

I think the banner looks sooo good on my car, it makes me wish I had gotten it tinted last year, instead of just last month... -Nick

For the less than 1% of the time when I am driving into the sun and it is at the angle that would be in the shaded part, it is not worth the ugliness. If you have never had tinted windows before the sides do a very good job at keeping ambient light out. Plus, I have sunglasses.

Here is an example. Not the best picture, but you can see the tint on the windshield. I like it because I drive in the sun alot going home from work and it helps alot. I don't think it look uglier either.

why not just tint the whole windshield like I did... actually the guy I bough the car from did it, but it looks soooooo sweet! at 35%, you can read a book through the tint, but because it's all the way around, it looks darker than it really is.

I got mine done, I think it looks pretty good..but thats just me. It doesn't really serve any functionality, I still have to wear sunglasses, so I guess its just whether you think it looks good or not and whether you want to spend the extra few dollars to do it.
