Oh and yes, the lower the % the darker its is. My back windows you cant see through, but the sides you can. In the pic you cant see in up front, but its only because of the angle. You can clearly see through on the driver side in that pic.

A nice tint will improve the looks of most any car. It tends to make the car look lower and I think more agressive. The trick is to pick the right tint color for your car's color.

Agreed. I've never thought of tint as a "looks" thing. In Texas it's more of a "don't wanna roast myself like a turkey in the hot sun" thing.

Not to mention, saving your interior from fading if the car sits in the sun a lot.

Right now there is no law in Georgia. It got rulled unconstitutional as all tint laws should be. As long it does not affect me safely operating my vehicle the goverment has no business telling me of what I can and can't do with my privite property. As far a law enforcement safty goes there are other ways to handle stopping a car with tinted windows and the still be just as safe. I went Florida legal which is 15 rear 30 front.

Yeah...a guy I know who does tint says Florida allows down to 30% or something, but most places will install 20% for ya all around...it's almost impossible for cops to tell the difference between 20% and 30% all around when driving by, especially on a black car. I would get the same % all around cuz it looks better. I wouldn't go any darker than 20% unless you like not being able to see anything at night...a friend of mine in VA has 5% all around and he has to open his door and lean out so he can see in order to back up his car...
