    Seriously thinking about tint for the windows.

    My 335 has 20% tint. My ZHP has 15%.

    I'd go with 20%.

    I did 35% on my car. Check my project thread for pics of it.

    Well I have 20% on my Black Saphire Metallic ZHP and LOVE IT . Looks like legal wise you can have anything you want on the back sides and rear and nothing on the front sides... Well that being said I'd definitely do 20% at least on the back sides and rear. Dont want to tell you to break the law with the front sides but if you want to be more subtle you could do 30-50% there depending on how paranoid you are about being ticketed for it.

    EDIT: Of course I do agree with Dane on the go big or go home and would say 20% all the way around (minus windshield of course).

    i'd go with 35% or nothing. Tint is illegal in NJ and they're nuts by Ocean County with tickets.... 20% is also too dark IMO

    Thanks for all of the responses, gents. Keep em coming.

    Not so much worried about getting ticketed, just don't want the hassle of getting stopped all the time.

    Whatever I settle on will go on rears and fronts. Not a fan of the split look.

    I once saw what I think was 30 or 35%. It looked PERFECT. Dark enough to make it look good but light enough not to get hassled excessively.
    Anything below is way too dark, IMO.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.
