Tint Opinions? I'm going to be tinting my black WS6 in a few weeks. I want to do 5% on back, and 20% on the side. Do you think this combo look good? The legal limit on the sides here is 35%, but I thought 20% would make a bigger difference in look. Also they have different tints, I was leaning more toward the onyx black finish (normal), but the charcoal looked kind of interesting as well So what do you guys think? Let me know your opinions, thanks for your responses! I appreciate it!
Also, so I get this right, the shop should be able to do the back window in 1 piece right? What about the dot matrix? I just want to get everything right the first time with this! Thanks again!

Re: Tint Opinions? I used to have 20% on the sides, I still have 5% limo on the back...it looks amazing when the cars alll clean.... 
Kind of like the bat mobile.... 
I took the 20%'s off the sides because I was getting hassled by the police, but I plan on putting them back on this summer and paying the $25 fines they throw at me...

Re: Tint Opinions? In CO you can have the back windows(rear passengers/rear window) tinted as dark as you want, but the fronts must be 35% or lighter.....I rarely drive with the windows up so what the cops can't see won't hurt em

Re: Tint Opinions? I had an 8% all around and it looked bad ***. now I only have it on the rear due to fix it tickets... 8% is kinda hard to find and it looks real nice so i did it. The shop I went to did a great job with the dot matrix. not exactally sure on the procedure but it look him an hour just on the dot matrix. not too bad for $180
