same interior as mine. 10% is way too dark to risk a ticket for me lol. i think i might be going 20 in the rears and 30 up front.

Just be extra careful when you back up - don't want to flatten a pedestrian.

I'd never even try it with my black interior - it'd look like someone spraypainted my window glass. Plus I'm not really big on really dark tint. I'm going to do 30-35% all around I think. My black interior will visually darken that somewhat, but I'd rather have the smoked window look than the limo tint look. Personal preference is all.
