I've got 35% around, limit for front is 50%, and a 5% strip on the front. Never had a problem with cops.

Helps with heat a little bit, but it gets HOT down here. And backing up at night can be slightly troublesome.

I'm not sure what I got but at night car headlights look like little flashlights being carried by a couple kids. I know the dark parts of the tint is called limo tint. The lighter part of the tint is like a mirror. At the front of the van you can't see anyhting unless you're right up on the bumper. From the side, the only windoe you can see anyhting is the slider door window. The back windows are painted black from the inside.

You guys are lucky, cant have that dark tint in Texas (I used to have 5% all around and loved it). Right now I have 25% on the side windows and 5% in the back, I may go and change the sides to 15% sometime this summer.

keep in mind thats also at like 9 or 10 in the morning and it was not that sunny. Gives me most the privacy I need except sunny days it looks like its 35%. From about 5 or 6pm or later you cant see much of anything and past 7 its pitch black.

Or MAYBE cause you have 2% all around. You do realize that that let's in 2% of the light outside, that't completely ridiculous and you deserve to be pulled over if you go that dark.

but the metal caught me between the legs and tore open my sack. I'm not kidding about this at all, it actually tore a small hole in my ballsack.

2% - 5% it all looks about the same. If you are smart about it you should have problems. The law here for front windows is give or take 43% (which is light) and I have no problems

dont come to va the tint laws are 50% for fronts and 35% rears which is slowing me down from getting tints 50% is to light not to mention a waste of money i'll most likely go for 35% all the way around and just look out for the cops
