Window tint suggestions

I have 05 c230 black on black, and i live in arizona... i cant stand another summer without some tinting. 33% is legal front in arizona, so i will have to do that, and for the rear windows, should i do 20% or limo tint?

the people who are doing it are our neighbors and they own a body shop and do window tinting... they think i should do limo in the back, but my dad has limo on his car and it 'can' be annoying sometimes.


any suggestions would be appreciated!

PS. here is my car, the windows are reflecting, but they really have the standard tint on them..

i would go with 20% all around...
an even tint looks much better, and 35% is too light

BTW, your car looks sick with the german plate and those wheels!

The Huber is great if you want that blueish AMG style tint, but I prefer LLUMAR ATR35-CHSR.... Keep it legal!!!! Do 35% all around, It'll make a huge difference.

i think 15% or 20% is perfect.
