I'd have to look at my receipt to be sure. I went as dark as possible on the rear windows and a shade lighter on the front 2, so it's dark. The front 2 are completely illegal in CA, but the majority of people do it.

Just got mine done yesterday, 35% all around. I was shocked when I got it back how dark it looks! (Moonlight White/Graphite) This is the first white car i ever owner, and what a difference it makes. Every angle looks completely black, except for straight through 90 degrees to the side.

^That's gonna be dark.

Just a personal preference - 40% front, 18% rears.

Just got Hybrid tint with 35% all the way around. Since the hybrid tint keeps out the heat pretty good, I decided not to go with 20% and risk having to re-do all the tint after a ticket. I love it...it's amazing and soo much cooler now, literally.

DJ - I think you got your percentages off. Check out this site for film percentages: Window Tint Percentages

5% means almost total black with only 5% of the light penetrating the film. That is probably why the question about 5% was asked about seeing through the front. I think you meant the front was lightly tinted and the rest is really dark. You're lucky you can get away with those tints in MA. Here in CA they regulate every f'ing little thing they can think of. Sometimes it's a PIA, but quality of life is the trade off.

BTW sick ride! Sedans rule!

How many have tinted their sunroof? I'm getting 15% on Saturday - I like to have the shade open but not get a suntan LOL.
