Window Tint

Anyone have suggestions on window tint? I was thinkin black 5% all around w/ a front strip and 15% on the front windows. Tint pics with percentage would be nice. THanks!

go to the second link on my sig, its 20% on the back ones ....more pics on second page

20% is decent for nite time visibility IMO....but i find it a little too light looking from the outside since my interior isnt black

I just had to get my tint removed yesterday, because i got a ticket from the state police and i had to have it off by my court date... i had 10% on the all the windows...i liked it and now it looks really different because they didnt take it off the back window

Personally...I think it looks much better if they are all tinted the same...

having the dark in the back will make the front look alot darker...

back when i had a 4dr civic i had 5% on back glass and on rear doors... 20% on front doors... and a 6" top windshield stripe and a 6"bottom windshield stripe...

it was hard to tell the difference between the 20 and the 5 unless the door was open... and the stripes on the windshield made it look like a widescreen movie while driving at night, it was great...
