i think so? thats what the tinting place told me :crazy: it was also dark that day too so i think that makes the tints darker
35% Front - 25% Rear
Just to show how tint looks on a T-red contour.

I have a buddy who is a county patrol officer. He ran his tint test machine thingy on my fronts, and they registered 28%.
This was shot just before dusk, which makes them look darker as would a cloudy day because there is no *direct* sunlight.
Just my 2 cents...

is that 28 front and back because it looks darker in the back. im pretty sure im gonna go with 20 percent back 3 and 30 front, do you guys think that would look good or should I go 20 all the way around? thanks for the imput guys.

20 all around looks great on any car. Depending on your tolerance to night time driving with tint depends on how the fronts are. I would go with 20 all around. Saves the interior in the summer.

Oh ya Now I know what my car will look like with 35% Sweet. I have a mirror tint on there now it was like that when I bought it and I hate it and have been harassed a good bit by the Alabama State Troopers Because of it. Ugh I need to change that crap!also 35% IIRC
