Tint rear half of car or no tint?

I don't want to deal with getting hassled by the police, and it is illegal to tint the front doors.

Would you tint the rear half of the car with, say, 20% or not tint at all?

... all tint or no tint...
cops won't hassle you too much for the front if it's a slight tint, and some tint is better than no tint...
that's my vote...

Tinting only half chops the cars lines. Tint all the sides w/ 30-35% (cops shouldn't hassle you).

Go with 20 rear and 35 front and you should be fine...

^^^+3. Tinting only the rear side windows would look whack, sort of like my wife's MDX.

Someone said it well - all tint or no tint.

are y'all saying that 5% on the rear and quarter windows with no tint on the door glass don't look good? C'mon what's wrong with the hearse look?

I have an appointment at omega tintwerks tomorrow. I'm thinking 35% all around but we will see. Black car makes the right tint percentage a little more critical

I went 35 on the doors and the quarters and 20 on the rear. Too late tonight to see how it turned out

I have 20% in the rear now. Decided to take the front 20% off after the cops stopped me for tint

I was an advocate of all or none, but i think i'll keep the rear, at least for the time being. Come spring i'll make the decision to keep or remove
