    Here's the night shots, it's kind of hard to really see the difference. It's not too bad though, and I don't have the best vision.

    I wouldn't really go by these pictures, it's a little darker in person sitting inside. I'd try to find a friend with 15-20% tint and look for yourself.

    now pull out side where theres no lights other then your own head lights, wet the window, and then tell me how good you see out. lefts are a b1tch for sure. lol side view mirror, where its it?

    im tinted, so i speak from experience. its the only thing i dont like about tint.

    It looks bright in the garage, but it was only one ceiling light on directly above me. My camera made the pictures seem brighter, which is why I stated he shouldn't go by the pictures. I couldn't get pictures with no lights around me, the pictures are going to be black, tinted or not.

    I drove for a bit, it's not too bad. I ordered some very bright reverse light bulbs though haha. My 3rd brake light is almost not visible so I need to source some brighter bulbs for that also.

    35% all around with beigh interior. I'd go with 35% if I had to do it again.

    35% looks good on gold but I think it would look real light on the car since its black and I might go that route of 35 front 20 in the back

    IMHO i dont like tint that does not match all the way around, I say go 20% all the way around. If its too dark backing up just roll your window down thats what I do

    BTW I have 15% on the camaro, been pulled over once in 3ryrs, and 20% on the gxp and never been pulled over


    Ive been medicating with burnouts and alcohol
