Also, take the tint off just the rear window and do that one at 20%. I did my sides 35% and my rear 20%, IMO it makes the sides look darker because less light gets into the car.

Thanks everyone that's what makes this site so great is the positive input... I am going to make an appointment to have the rear tint removed and put at 20% and leave the sides as they are.. So hopefully it will give it a darker look and also still look light enough to keep from getting tickets.. I will post my thoughts on it in a couple of weeks once I get it done...

Yep, that's what I was gonna recommend to just change the rear window first. I had 35% on my previous car and it lightened up a lot thru the years, so I knew from the start I'm getting 20% on my IP G. So far so good. G/L.

I love the 35% look. The prior person who said they did 20% rear i just might have to do that as well. What color interior are you both running?

It's all 35%. I have a windshield strip. The front strip comes down to the factory line. And the back window has black vinyl on the inside top where the dots are. Cops around here are strict about dark tint. Fix-it-ticket here cost over $200.
Here's a front shot

And a shot from the back. Since this picture was taken. We debaged all the emblems
