California law on tints looks 2b the same as NY/NJ so in my opinion considering the color of ur car go with 35% on all windows, and 20% on the rear it gives the entire tint a really nice look, not too dark not too light just perfect trust me.....Also, 4get tinting the windshield, not only is that going 2far, but now ur looking for tickets.....

 

i live in so cali and have had my tints for over a year 5% limo all around. got 1 ticket so far. had to peel it off and pay 10 dollars plus 30 more dollars to get it retinted limo AGAIN. i say its very very well worth the 40 bucks.

 

I have 35% tints all around including windshield in NYC/Queens and the cops hardly ever mess with me about the tints.....

Here are numerous links with the window tint laws for every state. The first one is from the International Window Film Association.

I have 20% tint all the way around. The typical percentages are 5% (limo), 20%, 35% and 50%. I used to have 35% on my last GS but this time I wanted darker and I'm very happy. If you don't have the stock navigation system then get metallic tint. It will last longer and it won't fade. Prices can vary from about $125 to $250, at least that's what it was in NY. If you get the Lexus dealer to do it, it will be between $400 and $500 since they just hire a guy and double his price. Here are links to 2 of the largest tint manufacturers.
