After reading about privacy glass and seeing some tint jobs I've decided to go for it. But in NY there are laws of 70% for the fronts so I'd have to do rears only and my initial thought is that it looks awkward half-done. Show me some of what you guys got whether it's fully or half tinted please and what %. Also, does anyone know what % it comes from factory with? Is it already 70%? People say 35% is a good spot but I don't want to go too dark - keep it a good shade to compliment the white.
see the door tints on this guy:

I'm thinking of Suntek Carbon (non-metallic) after getting quoted double the price for Huper Optik... $500-600 for tints is ouch plus it doesn't get terribly hot here like in Arizona.
UPDATE >> had it done a month ago and finally had a chance to snap pics... this is the Suntek Carbon 35 (non-metallic)... perfect darkness with the white imo. Sides and rear done, front windshield not touched as it is highly illegal in NY. Front sides are too but the guy said nobody should bother me about that.
The last pic shows from the inside the difference between the tinted side window and the factory front windshield - not much difference from the inside.
