Looking to get windows tinted

Hoping to get done tomorrow but will have to see how time goes. What do you think 5% back and 20% drivers and passenger or 20% all around?

I got 20% all the way around and like it. I worried that you'd see a difference with 5% on the back

20% all around is dark enough IMO.

tinting

How much of the filtering of UVA and UVB does tinting take care of ?

Get moleskin or some other kind of felt to protect your tint from scratches. I have scratches on my tint after only a couple months.

Endede up taking my Stang back to the place that did the tint. The guy cut the back window too small and the windows had dust on them and showed up after the tint dried. The place tells me they went through and cleaned their bay and put in a new filtration system to eliminate the dust. Will find out soon enough.
