I think I also got 20% all around but I think I would've liked 15% all around better.
I got a matt black car so it looks darker

I think you're less likely to get f-Ed with if you do the whole thing. The strip is easy to spot.

Your Mom Krazy
I remember working at a detail shop And this dude in a CLK pulled in with his windshield tinted....couldn't barely see s*#t! We were located in a covered parking structure so, I had to turn his hi-beams on just to move his car! He even told us he doesn't drive it at night because it too hard to see through. I don't remember asking him if he's been ticketed for it tho.

Looks good, but as others stated, get rid of the side markers, and go 100% or 0% coverage on the windshield. Just do a 35% or something mild, nothing too dark

Whole windshield...and entire car tinted on my ex-911.
I'm in CA too. I agree, either do the whole thing or don't do the strip.

Thanks, I wouldnt go too much darker then 50 on the front. But at night with mine, cant even tell. You see the same. During the day, its a little hard to tell its even done. But in the right light, like you said, it looks like cars in the commercials.

I've got my entire windshield done too. Sides and rear are 20% and the windshield is 50%. Its really not that noticeable. Everybody that has ridden in my car has never noticed it.
