What do yall recommend as a good % of tint for our cars? I know that everyone will have there own thoughts on the matter. Maybe you can throw up a pic and say what % tint you have. I think the legal tint here is 35% but not really strictly inforced though. So I was looking a 20% maybe 15%. I know I don't want it so dark that at night I have to open my door to back up lol. But what do yall suggest? pics?

20 was what I had on my truck. It was nice.

I put 5% on my car recently and its really dark. Its hard to see out at night, but its looks badass and it keeps the LA heat out.

i went w/ 20% all around. dark enough to look nice & keep the heat out and light enough to see out of.

yeah i had 20% on several vehicles of mine. i started going 15 and sometimes 5. depending on what car it is. big cars go darker. smaller cars go a little ighter. id say 15-20 would be about right

This is just after I had my car tinted. The damn thing was dirty as hell, but 35% tint sure looks nice on there.

Yup, 2.5% all around here. Windows roll down when the bulls come around.
