Default what % tint do you have?

My car is matador red mica with black interior, I'm dropping my car off tmrw morning to get my windows tinted and I'm thinking of going with 40% all the way around, my charger has 35% in the front and 25% in the rears but it has tan leather so I'm thinking with the black interior I should go a little lighter what do you guys think? and post pics of youre tints if you can with the specs..

I'm running 20% in the rears, and 50% up front. Not California legal, but if it were legal to go all the way around, I would do 20% all the way. I also tinted my moonroof and windshield visor area at 5%.

I'm running with 70% front and 35% rear, should've gone darker but not sure if it's legal in California.
