Sweet. Need to go find a decent tint shop. Could be tough out here in the cornfields.

My guy said the back was 35%, and he did 35% on the front. Knock on wood, no stops for it yet.

I used to use 20% rear and 50% front on my cars, but I have recently been using 35% all around. I prefer the tint to match front and rear and not be too dark to attract attention from the law. It is also harder to see at night out of 20% tint. I'm not sure what my X5 has, seems like 35% on the front windows.

I just got my G37 done last week and went with 35% all around. It is interesting because I went with same thing on my Audi and it looks darker - not sure if the factory windows had some level of tint, or just the black interior makes it look darker vs. the G37 that has a light interior.

35% almost exactly matches (Formula 1 Classic tint).

I have Formula 1 pinnacle 35% (or 28%) i really don't remember but it's a perfect match! only on certain days, you can tell a slight difference looking out.
