what is stock tint percentage?
I want to match my front windows with the rear. I know it is lighter than my other cars which are SolarGuard 20% charchoal. My guess is it is 35%?

35% is the closest match to BMW "privacy" glass.

Most likely not legal and will draw attention from local LE.

u are more "sunny states" than us here on east cost, what's legal in yours it's illigal in ours (at least as far as the tint goes) 35% is illigal in most north-eastern states...

I want 20%, it keeps the cabin sooo much cooler, but I don't want to redo the entire vehicle.
