New 15% Tint! I just got my car tinted yesterday and the only thing that upsets me, is that I didn't do this earlier! 
I got 15% on the sides and hatch. The tint shop I went to did an amazing job. The main thing I was worried about was the hatch with all the horror stories I heard about concerning the dot matrix. When I asked him how he does the hatch, he said not to worry. He said it would be one piece, no paint and no vinyl, just his secret method. 
Whatever it is, it works. Here are the pics. 
( Yes I will be lowering it and wheels are next!

Oh can you open the door and take a pic of the gap around the edge of the side windows? Im so disappointed with mine im getting a refund and hopefully a new hatch glass.

That def sucks that the tint shop scratched your glass. Good luck with that, and hope everything gets straightened out. As for the gap around the edges of the glass, there's at most a 1/16th of an inch gap around both side windows. Pretty much goes right to the edge. I'll try and get some pics up soon for you.
