Can you guys post your window tint and what % it is. What is factory on the rear windows like 17% or something right.

Anyways post your window tint so I can see how it meshes with the factory rear windows.

are you looking to just match the front or go all darker?
I had 15% put on the fronts right when I bought mine, matched well but wasnt dark enough for me.
about a week later had 15 put on the rest of the side windows over the factory and 5 on the rear over factory. now during the day you cant even see in the back.

i got 30% up front and 5% over the stock tint. you can't see inside at all through the rear windows. my interior is black too so the front windows look really dark from certain angles when the sun goes down.

5% front, 20% over factory smoked glass. Front is slightly darker than the rears, I'm tinting the shield 35% to offset the dark ass tint up front. Pretty easy to drive during the day but at night it can be slightly inconvenient, should be much easier once I have some tint across the windshield.

i believe its 15% tint on top of the factory privacy glass in the rear and 25 or 35% on the front windows (i will be matching the fronts to the backs eventually)

I have 35% in front and the rest is stock. My tint guy told me you can get pulled over for any % tint for the front, just depends on the cop. And while the cop is at it, he can get you for any other simple mods like HID, clear corners, DRL's, etc.

IMO, 35% is enough to block out the sun and is not too dark at night. But if tint is legal in CA, I'd have my windshield tinted too !!

Sorry for the blurred pic. Took it from my phone.

I see a lot of people running with tinted windows out here in Oklahoma... *California has a strict law against ANY tint on front windows and windshield*

I dont like the way A) The tint shade doesnt match..and B) THE COLOR IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM FRONT TO BACK!!!!...color match your shit people!!!! lol...thats my rant for the day

Is there a way I can get my front windows treated....dipped, whatever...so that it'll match the back perfectly? since our back windows dont actually have a tint film ontop, they're just treated...putting film on the front doesnt *USUALLY* turn out to great

you must be seeing dyed tint then, it fades.
