    eh, having it that dark is possibly going to suck at night. as good as it looks, it is hard to see around cornors even with my 15% when it's dark out.

    I don't want anyone to be able to see from the front that's all. I'll be sure to throw some pics up, when I take it in I'm gonna see what the guy in the shop says.

    I've got 15% on the rear and sides and I nice big strip on the top of the windshield. It's nice but after running it many years I wish I would of gone even darker. If I end up redoing it someday I may go 10% maybe even 5%...

    I think you have your numbers wrong

    100% is no tint at all...

    the percentage i believe stands for the amount of light it allows to pass through, meaning there is only 5% of the light entering your car through the tint.

    Which means it's awesome because visibility from the outside to the inside is only gonna be 5% .
