Ive got 35% and I love it. Doesnt get the cops attention, I can see everything well, and it looks good. I would stick with 35%, my friend has 20% on his EP3 and you cant see very well at all in the night time.

I used to have 18% on my last car. It was a pain in the ass to drive at night.

Right now I have 50% on the fronts and 35% in the rear. It blends perfectly with that dot-matrix shit on the edges.

Where are you located? Im done having illegal tint. Its not worth the tickets.

I have 35% and it's great, doesn't get me hassled at all, want to go 20, but it's not high on the list since I already have tint

The stuff on my Prelude was high quality tint. The roads here are dark as hell. There are no streetlamps on the roads near my house.

Plus it looked darker from the outside because the dark green color with the black interior.

i have 20% in the front and 15% in the rears ill post a picture so you can see. but it really depends on your interior if you have black interior the tint will look alot darker then parchment interior which i have.

I always read about people complaining about 20% being too dark but IMO it's just right (all around). I used to have 20% in the front and 5% on my back window of my 350z and I was still able to see just fine at night AND never got pulled over for it. Maybe I have super 20-20 vision?! I currently have 20% all around and have never gotten pulled over *knocks on wood* in hater Roseville, CA

Driving in a city with tints is completely different from the backwoods of VA.

why did you do this? it doesnt make any sense to me. i could understand if your sides are X% and your rear darker but to have 2 different tints on the sides especially that first picture, id rather have all 20 or all 15....plus like i mentioned in my wheel thread that laying down a 35 on your whole windshield cleans up the look even more. that 2nd picture, it would look like you have 5% on your windshield if you had 35 on there. it does wonders to a car thats already tinted. it would improve that 1st pic too, where when you have some windshield showing through, it makes that 15% look like 35 now. the windshield tint would make it look so much better. id also get those triangle windows redone to 20. to me it sticks out like a sore thumb

I can understand dark tint all around, but tinting the windshield thus compromising your main line of vision is what I do not understand...

I used to have 50% on my front windshield. It really was not too noticeable and I could see perfect at night. Then again it's only 50%...

I know its illegal my whole car is 15% so its illegal too. I would like some 50% on my windshield because it would look alot darker then that because of the rest of the tint and you can see out ok with it

You can tint over it but you'll probably get air bubbles.
