since they come 75% tinted, I did 45% front, 35% back, turned out great, classy. I will post pics when I take some.

There's already a pic thread for that.

How much tint depends on your preference and whether you care if you stay legal.

IMO, 20% sides and back and 35% to the AS1 line on the windshield.

35% all around is least I'd want to do.

I do like 'em better when the front windows and the rear windows are the same. Some like a lighter front and darker back.

I have a KBP with 15% all around and 50% on the windshield. If I was going to do it again i would get 20% all around and 50% windshield.

Dark windows on the KBP looks really good. If you go too light it doesnt match the car

I have a KBP and I tinted 15% all around and it looks great. I have no trouble at night, but to each his own.

My KBP

I am considering getting my windows tinted as well. I need to find a decent shop here in West Palm Beach, FL to do it first of all.

Second, I don't want to go too dark as it makes it difficult to see at night and also illegal.

I guess it's a matter of preference.

What price range did you guys pay?

~$240

Try searching "Tint Price" or "Tint Cost". Also try "Tints Florida". There are post on prices out there for sure.

Go to Tint King they will do TL for about 200. They did my wifes MDX flawlessly everything is computer cut, the owner has a TL and will not do illegal tints. They also have the hi end expensive film that will cost more but worth it if you are going with a light tint like 35% all around.

IMHO though KBP looks best with dark tint.

I can show you pics of my car if you would like.
