Window tint percentage?

[andy55447]

I think 25% or 30% would look perfect. Not too dark to see out of. But still looks cool.

I did 20% all around on my civic I owned at one point. I found it to be way too dark at night time. During the day was okay but at night backing up you can't see for crap.

I think 35% is a good percent to go with

I am getting mine done here in Atlanta and the place said to be legal fronts had to be lighter, not sure of the %. But getting as dark as possible in the back and lighter up front would give the illusion of dark all around. Guess I will see soon enough.

Can't say I heard of Jerde's...I went to Maplewood and got it at Ziebart...they did a good job...I didn't go with the high end stuff just the one year warranty stuff, hopefully it will hold out longer, which I think it will. I had to sign a waiver as well so Ziebart is not liable for my tint. I paid about the same as you too.

Yes !

My wifes work truck 06 Dodge Daytona (seen in the first 3 pics I posted) is tinted like this (factory) and I can't stand it. the back windows are about a 35% and the front are 75-80% smoked glass.
One of these days i'll sneek off with it and tint the drivers and passenger front windows to match the rear passenger windows

Glad you don't live and drive around me at night with a tinted windshield.

A couple of my helmets have 35% and 50% tint so you can't argue they dont affect the night visability at all.

As promised, here are some pics of my Yaris with 50% fronts and 20% rears.









You can't see into the trunk area at all. It's hard to impossible to see the back seat, depending on the lighting. The 50% definately makes a difference from the stock.
