I live in socal and I got 35% all around. Ive been pulled over and the cop actually let me go on the tint and I think if it was any darker he would have given me a fix it. I wouldn't go anything higher than 35%, its just a waste

here are some pics

yeah i usually drive with my windows down but this heat is killing me.
im thinking 35 looks good, and it seems like not too many problems with the police. any visibility problems at night? and i have black on grey interior, would this make it look any darker?

i got black interior and, no issues with visibility at night. I have been thinking off and on about getting very LIGHT tint on my windshield cuz I am not always happy on a sunny day walking up to my car and the tint looks pretty see thru with the sunlight thru the windshield. I feel like tinting the windshield a little would help the overall darkness of the rest of the windows. But then you can get into visibility issues at night. might not be worth it...

ok sounds good. yeah tinting the windshield could be iffy.
i made an appointment for monday but im second guessing myself.
35% tint all around on a silver allroad, will it look good?
im struggling to find pics of silver wagons with tinted windows...

Don't do the windshield, its gonna cost you about what your whole cars gonna cost to get tinted and cops will definatly get you on that

haha yeah no windshield my cousin did everywindow blacked out and the windshield but her had a doctors note saying he had an eye problem and could get direct sunlight lmao, that car looked so hot but it was really really unsafe at night, but the bastard also wasted $15,000 on his custom stereo system
