I really like my 35% but if I lived in a place that the cops don't bug you much with try like a 20 or 15%. IMO 5% just looks too dark.

5% is really dark but can be nice during really hot days... I say go 15%. I have 15% all the way around with 50% on the windshield.

I would say 15 since your car isnt a dark color. But depending where you live dont do the windshield. I know over here in cali its an automatic tow if a cop pulls you over

if its hot where u live go as dark as u can. Where i live cops dont seem to care i have 5% all the way around and no cops ever hassled me plus i been pulled over before never mentioned my tint. And it helps the car stay cool i deal with 100 degree temps from april till september so i take waht i can get. Good luck post pics with ur final.

other than cops and looks, do you know what else you should be thinking about?

my friend had his WRX totalled because he pulled out in front of a guy at night and the guy didn't have his lights on so my friend couldn't see him. but my friend was found to be at fault because he had his windows tinted too dark by legal standards. he lost a lot of money because of that.


just something to think about.. and yes, 5% is just too dark. 15% isn't too bad.
