looking to buy tint
okay so i did a little bit of quick photoshopping to try and see what my car would look like with different tints
i want 5% all around but im pretty sure i would def get pulled over for that...although i might just end up getting it and if i do get pulled over just pull it off and get lighter
but here are the other choices in mind
first is 20% in front and 5% in back
second is 20% all around
(i know its not great but i only spent like 5 min each)
EDIT: i had to redo one bc i screwed up haha

I would go 20% esp in PA...they are not real easy on that sort of thing...I've been pulled over more times than I can count for tint.

backing up with 15%=NO visibility at night at all
5%=worse most likely
I'd go 20% all around...looks good that way

i had 20 on mine I was happy, but got pulled over, I have 35 over factory now, i wish it were darker, but 35 you are likely not to get pulled, 20 is optimal ok to see out at night, but chances increased of getting pulled, unless u roll a lot with windows and sunroof open.

5% backing at night you still have some visibility. you can see vauge outlines of things that your backup lights shine on. during the day tis fine.
