What tint % do you have??
 
Getting my windows tinted tomorrow. The plan is 20% on the back and 35% on the side. Can you post a pic with what % you have? Want to make sure I'm not going too dark/too light

35% all around on my brz.

Since mine is white, don't want the back darker than the front. Tint guy also recommended it all 1 color especially because of the lower number of windows

I think the same percentage all around looks better. I dont have tint yet but Im getting 35% all around next month. I dont like dark tint on sports cars.

30% all around except front. You'll want to find a friend or two who has tint done and sit in it to get a feel for how it'll be. Be prepared to have a hard time backing up at night when there's no light around. :)

Do y'all think 20 will be too dark for the back??

I believe there is a tint picture thread. But, mine is not tinted yet but I plan on 20% all aground, it is very dark, but all of my past vehicles had 20%, so I don't change

I sat in an STi that had 5% all around and 50% on the windshield. It wasn't that bad, but I can't imagine driving when there is no light around.

My suggestion, find someone who has tint on their car at what you're looking for and ask if you can sit in it. Can't really judge from the outside, since looking from the inside out is much different.

35 tint all around on mine. Sometimes I wish it was darker

Stock on mine. I think factory its 75% all around? The cabin is so small on these cars that the sun really isn't too much of an issue. Tint for me is more about protecting the interior for long term care.

I used 70% all around...

As long as people have their lights on it's ok, but it'll take some getting used to. But if you're trying to back up with no light around, you might want to roll down your windows/open the doors so you can see better.
