i can tell the difference between the front and rear and i would go with the 20 the 35 is noticably different from stock but in hind sight i wish i would have went with the 20 all around. A lot of it depends on where you go to get it done and the quality work that they do. Where i went it would have been an extra like 25 to get 20 on the front since it is illegal here but i wish i would have done it

i think there is a little difference between the different darkness but not a huge one. The place i went was a lil pricey but they did a good job. I also got a lifetime warantee with mine and there are dealers all around the country that i can use it at. I think i will go back in and get it darkned eventual. If you are just going to do the front you should ask them to match it to the back or a lil lighter definately not ane darker that would look goofy

you wont get them to match perfectly because the back is tempered glass so the glass is actually darker but you can get it pretty close and it will look good
