For those that don't know, the number is for how much visibility is left after the tint is installed on your windows.

As for the clear bra, it shouldn't mess up your paint at all. On top of that, your car is black, so the paint doesn't need to be color matched because it's almost impossible to see a little discoloration. But because your car is black, the lines of the clear bra will stand out if you are standing within 20 feet of the car. But it's still pretty worth the protection.

Dark enough to make it hard to see inside, but enough vision to see out clearly enough at night. 50% IMO is not worth spending money on since it almost looks like there's no tint, but 20 is waaay too dark.

If you're looking for protection against heat and UV rays, it doesn't matter what percent tint you get, the majority of the tints out there will block out most of those.
