Default Question about window tinting-

I'd like to get my windows tinted but don't know what % to go with.

I have to parallel park everyday so some rear window visibility is a must. Also, I live in CA and as far as I know front window tinting is illegal, however, if you put a very light tint cops will not bother you.

My cat has a Tungsten pearl exterior. What % should i get for the the windows....I don't mind darker window tint for the rear and lighter up front.

Randh,

Did you check the big tint thread we have in the 2IS FAQ already?

I have 20% on my SGM IS350 all around, and just had 35% done on my mother's silver ES350.
I prefer having the same tint on the all windows, but if you're concerned w/ the police...either do 35% all the way, or 20% in the rear and 35% up front.

Doing 20% all the way around may bring you a little too much attention from the police.
