20% or 80% (depending where your from). I highly recomend a "Limo" 6" windsheild strip. Our windshields are huge and on bright sunny days it allows too much light in and the front windaows will look slightly lighter, the front strip deters this and makes for a perfect match in any sun/shade.
yea 20% matches the back perfect. i did 35% on my front windows just to keep the cops off me during the day.. but at nite it looks just as dark as 20% plus i can still see my side mirrors at nite which is always handy.
I had mine tinted 17% and it's a perfect match. The shop you take it too will tell you what you need to match the back. I'm sure 20% works good too. It cost me around $50 bucks at my local shop. As for the cops, I've never been pulled over strictly for tint. The only time in nine years anybody said anything to me was once when I got a speeding ticket. I've probably been pulled over 5-6 times and thats the only time anybody's said anything about the tint. Probably just depends on what kind of mood the cop is in.

Since the topic is new.. just wondering... anyone ever get their bumpers tinted?
When I finish my HID retrofit, I'm gonna take it to a shop and see if they'll put scrap over my headlights, so I can see how it will look... gonna check out bumpers too.
I think it might look good...
