Tint - a set on Flickr

I went 25% front and 18% back. I liked it, but if I could do it again maybe go darker. Hopefully that helps a bit.

20% all around works for me. Not too dark and not too light.

30% all around. I should have gone 20% in all honesty, but it works for me.
Good Luck.

35% is cool. Shouldn't attract the 5-0 too much.

i concur with 20%, it looks good on everything but its not too hard to see out of.

But do be sure to check your local laws first and be ready to deal with the consequences if you go against said laws in the event you get stopped. No front tint is legal in NY and its been 8 years with no pull over for that on any car ive owned ::knock on wood:: but some cops do love to harp on tints, its an easy summons for them

5% Here-

I think 20% is perfect in california.
I had limo tint on both my cars that I owned in OC, California and never had problems. However, it was mentioned by almost every officer that pulled me over, so i got a little scared
