3M FTW, but I'm biased because I have it.(5%) I think 3M puts it at 7% though.

Yea, what Eric said...........HAHA

Both companys make a high quality tint, so get what you think looks best on
your car. I'd stay away from the reflective tints unless you enjoy getting
violations. If they stop you for tint they'll find other things to write you up
for........been there

I had mine done. It might cost a couple dollars more but it is worth it.

most tint shops will remove the third brake light so they can tint the entire window. i've only seen a few that don't.
