    I'm on my phone so I can't post pictures, but I have 15% all around with a brow on my white gp. If you look in members rides its called Danielle's 99 GT.
    I'm in Indiana where 35% is the legal. I've never been bothered about it and this is the 2nd car I've done that dark on. I'm very happy with it.

    i had 15% on my prix. it was nice, nice and dark. but now that i am older and wiser i think settling for the legal 35% is just fine. it is dark enough to keep the sun out (what tint is for), but light enough to see into the car somewhat. cops will pull you over (depending upon the area, of course) with dark tint.

    aint that the truth!

    in NJ we are allowed to tint the back windows as dark or light as you want, but the fronts are to be left clear, as well as the windshield. my only tint ticket was given at night, even the 35% becomes black at night.

    Tinted my rears 20% I personally wouldn't go any darker than 20%. The tint really "pops" with a white car.

    im actually beginning to think really dark tint is ugly. a nice lighter tint usually sets a car off.
