Pics of Tint % w/ Ceramic???

Sorry to re-post old topics, but we are going to get our tint next week and curious of the "darkness" variations of the tints. We have black on black interior with the black headliner, so curious if you can post pics of the tints you got.

We are in MI so we can only legally tint the rear doors and window and we have agreed on the ceramic with our shop. Trying to decide between the 17%/20% (ish) or the 35%. Can you show me your window tint pics????

Thanks and will share when ours is done. I'm leaning to 35% with the ceramic, curious of others experience.

Does ceramics or metallic tints affect radio reception...not sure which one.

Anyways...on a side note...we have motorcycle cops pulling ppl over and testing their tints...if under 35%...they get a ticket for each window that is in violation. My buddy had 20% all around...he got 7 tickets (2 fronts, 4 rear which includes the small triangle glass, and 1 rear windshield)...totalling over $2000 in fines for illegal tints.

Done

Just a quick pic on the way home. Got Viper Ceramic 20% on the rear doors/window. Looks great. Would have liked to do the front doors, but....state law enforced where we vacation. Now it will sit to dry for a few days.

Metallic affects the radio and defrosters. I have Florida legal tint 35% on the front. 15% on the rear windows plus the front Visor. See the sig..
