id go as dark as you could legally.

20% rear ... 35% front I'vee been running this in Ohio no troubles ...

Too dark of tint is tacky imo

20% is the darkest I'd go, but I'm probably gonna get 35% all around when I tint mine

I would go 15-20 all around...you have pretty big windows and a big front windshield so it will make the front windows appear lighter when its tinted.

I had 15% metalic on the stang and I have 15% over the stock 18% in the rear of the truck and 2 layers of 15% on the front windows

ok i am thinking 38% or like 20-15% all around i just don't need to much trouble from the police over the tint, but by what i understand is that a darker tent wouldn't look as dark on my car because of the light let through the front windshield

35% and you won't be bothered. light enough to see people inside but dark enough to tell it's tinted.

25-30

5% all around including windshield. Sun is for iguanas.

That's correct. If you add a light tint of 35% to your windshield, the other tint will look MUCH darker.

I wouldn't mismatch, I HATE the look. On all of my cars I have always used 5, 15, or 20. I think you should do 20.

I have 5% rear and 20% Front on my intrepid and it does not look weird. The only time I see a car with tint that looks weird is if only the rear is done or if they have one window with no tint (like the drivers window).
If your not gonna go at least 35% (except windshield)your just wasting your money, buy sunglasses and use the extra cash for something else.

I have 50% on the windsheild (did not want to go to dark for night driving) and the whole car looks way darker.

ok well just got back from tinting my window and here are the pics







so it has 20% tint all the way around, tell me what you think

Looks awesome. I love your car, the dark paint, white letter tires and dual exhaust.... looks great.

Looks awesome!

When I was living in Cleveland not even 6 months ago I had the windows tinted on my current car 20% and before the install I had to sign a waiver stating that I understand my windows will be tinted beyond legal limitation according to OH laws.

But even at only 20% they are perfect to my liking. I wouldn't want my windows any darker or any lighter than I have them now. I'm happy with 20%.

looks great

my windows are 3% all around with an eyebrow and 30% on the whole windshield. same as my last 2 cars. i love it.

ur car came out really good! leave the headlight covers off and get black headlights. the covers absorb (if you will) the light output from the headlights, youll be much better off with black housed headlights.

Looks great Alex.

Looks hot as hell!! Love the pipes, too.

Ug Caprices are so gorgeous.
