I have the same only because it's the limit for Idaho, and I don't like it too much. 35% is just dark enough to almost look opaque at night, but that's about it.

Nope 50 is not worth it. I see it on my friends car everyday. I dont have any pics but look at your window now and just picture it being the just a liiittttllleee bit darker and there you go.

I'm in va and they are kind ofstrick with the tint, but I talked to a cop and he said 50 sides and you can spray paint the back black if you want. I have 35 sides and 20 back and dont have any problems with cops and I like the way it looks best, maybe a little darker, but I dont think its necessary. Here are some pics for ideas...

well i was thinkin that the darker the back window is the darker the back windows will look...so maybe 50 wont look so bad then...but anyways ill prolly end up goin with atleast 35 on the sides...i mean cause there is just so many things on my car that are legal in VA...haha
