Ok, I searched the forums and found that someone else saw that someone on the forums said the best match was around 35%. I would appreciate if anyone else could throw in some more knowledge on what the rears are factory. I called a local tint company and they said the factory is 20%, but it looks to light to be 20%. Any info appreciated! :chuckle:

I wanted to know this too since our tint law has changed now i could tint the front window but want it to match the rear ones.

Pretty sure its around 25-20 percent. The local law here is 35 percent and I got my fronts tinted at 30, below the legal limit but not enough to attract attention. it looks perfect when looking directly at the window, but once you get a look at an angle, you can tell its lighter than stock. Here is a pic of what the fronts turned out to look like, and the last is of an angle to see the difference.

So is there a correct answer to this? I may have to get my police friend to use his light gun to test it for me. If anyone knows let us know, if not this weekend I will be asking him.

Did you not read my post above your post, your answer is right there. Its 25 percent.

Didn't know that "Pretty sure it's around" was a definitive answer? Thanks for the help though. I just wanted to make sure before I went forward with this project.
