I love the look of dark tint, Especially on a sleek coupe,

However having had several 240sx's w/tint and several w/o I far prefer the increased visibility of no tint or something like 75%

Most shops in GA won't even do the job if you want it below the legal limit. Did you get it tinted in Ohio before the law changed or something?

Serious tinting NOOB question here. Is the percentage the amount it blocks (100% is blackout) or amount it doesn't block (100% is transparent)

% is what it doesn't block.

25 all around, still undecided on if ill do anything woth the windshield. Tints are a stupid fix it ticket that can be taken care of if you know who to talk to.

The 30% you posted looks good to me. That's probably what I will end up with as well.
