    Go as dark as you can legally...or if you wanna risk it, go darker. Not sure what NJ laws are, but in VA the darkest they allow is 50/35, which I got. I wish I went with 35 all around or maybe even 35/20. Most people never have a problem with tint anyways, unless your car is noticeably modded (in which case, your car will catch the eye of cops and they will pull you over and start inspecting crap).

    30/25 will pretty much look the same all around. Either go with a bigger difference, or go for the same number depending on what you want. 30/25 is kinda pointless.

    Here's a few pics of mine with tint. Not sure exactly what the laws are here in FL but I know it's one of the darkest in the US. My tint is as dark as legally pissible.

    This is 32% all the way around (pretty much what 35% will look like). It's dark enough that you cant see through at dusk. I don't like black tint at all. A light tint on a dark car looks classy IMO.

    60% of the time, it works EVERY time.

    I have the same setup as buck, am very happy with the choice.

    Seen a few that did the 20, its just too much. On black it just blends the whole car so looks alright, but most other colours its overpowering.

    in new jersey it is illegal to tint your front windows and the back ones can basically be painted black.

    NORCAL AZ and AW'ers all pretty much went to the same guy for tint through a bunch of group buys over the years. Everyone pretty much agrees 32% works best on all our cars. Just dark enough to make it nice, just light enough to keep the cops off our backs.

    I've been pulled over by the cops 5 times for speeding last year (got 3 tickets) and I drove next to one yesterday. I don't know about other states, but in Cali, as long as the tint doesn't hinder their view of the driver, they won't pull you over. Don't be a Jack*ss when they do pull you over, and you should have no problems.

    Here's mine. Just remember to roll your windows down when you see the PO-PO.

    Oh yeah, 25%
