In my sig me and my sister both have 35% tints. I darkended the image though so they don't look that dark. But I will say that whatever interior color you have seriously effects the outcome. For example 35% on a tan or light interior will look like 50% on a black interior. And in the reverse, 35% on a black interior will look like 20% on a light interior (the lower the number the darker the tint). I love 35% all around on black interior, if you have a light interior, I would get 20%. This setup would be privacy during the day (being able to see in, but not attract to much attention; and offer very good privacy at night - only able to see shadows).

If your looking for privacy, do 35% with black interior, 20% with light interior (or even darker if you want daytime privacy too). If your just looking to cut down on the heat, do 35% with light interior and 50% with black interior.

i agree with jctevere. I have 35% all around, except windshield, and i think it's perfect. it's pretty see-through during the day though, but i prefer that than having it totally black.

Mixed Fruits, I think its safe to assume that those are 35% tints on the white c300 with black interior? Tints always photograph much darker than they really look in real life. The first picture though of your rear window probably best captures what it looks like in real life (in person).

I have 5% on the back windows. My car has black interior. It looks pretty dark inside and outside. And I barely couldnt see anything through the back windows when I was backing up. I have to rely on the back-up camera in night when back up. But I just love the look, especially with my gloss black roof.

if you have tan interior go with 25% or youcan go littler darker(20%). Somehow Tan interior makes tint look lighter. I know this because I had two different car and with black interior 35% to 25% is perfect, but with Tan interior, I have 25% and I wish i did 20%. Never got pulled over.
