15% is the stock tint match up. i only recommend getting your windows professionally done. well worth the money. mine was $105 for both fronts and it took 35 min.mine looks purplely in the pic but its not at all, it is because of the antiglare coloring of the rears that make it look like that.Name:  DSCN09450915.jpg

Stock tint isn't 15%, I think it's 20%. I know mine is at 15% in the front and it's noticably darker (if you're looking for it). Look at nicholoff's side pick and look at the difference between the front and back. Now look at Chris_w_2008's at 20% all around.........Zabeard, you've had your windows tinted for a while now, you ever noticed that?

yea when looking out....

its because that tint is in the glass. where this is on the side of the glass. i think if it was metered it would be very close to the same.

you let your wife drive it like that, um wow.
Its been that way for about a year now. To be honest with you. It actually blends all in together from looking at it outside at an angle. The sides are darker so you really cant tell. The pic was showing it off. Still not dark enough for the costa's.

yeah i know that truck he is on caraudio forums. he has double 5% all around. retarded. to the guy who said cali is illegal to have the fronts tinted darker than 70%. michigan is illegal to have your fronts tinted, we can only have the top 4" tinted. and the reason mine looks different as zach said the tint is in the window and the new is on the window and the antiglare in the factory tint makes it look different, 95% of the time you dont notice a difference.
