Need Tint Pics

ok i am sending my car our for tint.... just was wondering what different tint % looks like on different cars... now i like dark tint and legality does not bother me.

i was thinking going 20% or maybe even 15% on the driver and passanger window and then darker on the others but i dont know if i will see the differance and it will bother me

so if you could post up pics of your tint and what percents you have that would be great.

Around the back window.. The "matrix".. There's been a couple threads about it.. That the tint doesnt stick to it so some shops use glue, or a black piece of vinyl

What he is talking about is the dot matrix on the rear window at the top. The tint dosnt stick to it very well so its not the same color as the rest of the tint. It's not very noticable on my car unless you get up next to it.

production status codes

I know I'm in the wrong place but hope somebody can help me anyway. Can somebody steer me to somebody that has access to production status codes? I think my dealer is jerking me off. Thanks for any help.
