I live in CA where it is illegal to have any on the front side windows.
i have 5% around the back and 35% on the front.
it's still dark enough (35%) and it's dark enough that I should have gotten a ticket in CA for it,
but my mom drives my car a lot and rolls around with the windows up so.

Check out local laws
and then push them just a little
:D

I saw the red civic with 35% front and 20% back, that looked nice. what do you guys say, get limo all over and take the risk or stick with the law and get 35%/20%?

you know, the thing that annoys me the most is that when i am at a stop light, people on my left or right, turn their head and look into my car. i am like, what the f**k? i want a dark tint so that they can't see! i know you guys understand what i am talking about.
I HATE that,
but with 35% in the front
esp at night,
they see just enough of a shadow
to stay afraid

... stay legal... =)

My tint is 35% all around with a visor done at 20%, maybe less. I don't want cops coming around and picking at my tint 'cuz it's illegal... >.<

yeah man, i want some tint too... my civ came w/ clear as s**t windows, cept for this damn scrape or scratch the passenger window gets on the outside, i'm guessing from the roller thingy...

i was kinda worried that i couldnt get tint w/o fixin that, til my buddy told me that tint goes on the INSIDE of the car.... hmm.... i'm retarded.... but yeah, id probably go w/ 25 all around, maybe 20.... its on a black civ, so i figure any tint would look a bit darker, wouldnt it?

20% all the way around would look good to me. Especially if you have a black car.

go with 20 all the way around. It will look good in the daytime and you will still have some vision at night.

I used to have 20% all the way around, but if anyone here knows Central Jersey, the cops are ASSSSSSSHOLES!!! I used to have to drive through certain towns in the Winter with my windows down, just so I wouldn't get hassled. Eventually I just took the tint off the front side windows, but thinking back on it, it wasn't the best idea, now my car looks silly. Once I get it back from the shop (f**kin snow) I'm going to go back and put 35% all the way around so that I can have a nice even tint without getting to hassled. What rocks is being in another state for college, they can't pull you over for violating a state regulation like tints if you're from out of state w00t!! IMO, cops should leave our asses alone with the whole tint thing, it's not like we're all a bunch of drug dealers and gang members rollin in civics ready to shoot up the damn place, we just do it for looks and less hassle during sunny ass days!
