Window Tint

Window Tint
Does anyone have any photos of X types, Black with Tan interior with different % of tint on the windows? I was trying to decide 15% or Limo all around. also flirting with the idea of limo the back window and 15% on all the doors. Any Ideas? trying to see how the light color interior affects the darkness of the tint

Joey, I just installed 20% on my car. Here is a pic of what you are looking at:
As for being able to see into the vehicle, unless you have the sun shining in the windshield, you are not going to be able to see in. Sure, if you put your hand up to the window and really try, then you will a little bit. But, for the most part, if you are back 10 feet or so, the windows are pretty much all black.

please get the same shade all around... i think it is sooooo ugly when people have darker rear windows than the front... looks liek you are some body's driver lol... if you go best look is about 20% all around with the window visor done... but some shops only have 35% and 15%... i did 35% take a look at my pics... but really looks better with same shade all around...

Thanks for all of the responses! Thermo do you have pics from the outside also? im not worried about seeing out, i always had limo tint on my cars. I just noticed on a black car, if you put limo tint, alot of times its not the same black color and it makes the car look cheapy. How would i see pics of disco's car?

Joey here's some pics I took tonight. This is with 20% tint on the sides. I messed up the rear window and need to redo that. So, with that installed, things might be a bit darker. This is also taken in the evening with the sun starting to set, so, the camera may be automatically adjusting things a little bit on you.
Standing at the back corner of the car. pretty much all black, no chance of seeing in.
About 2 feet back, looking straight down into the car.
This is with the camera right up against the glass, looking across the car.
These pics make the tint seem a lot lighter than what it normally is. if you are back a few feet, seeing into the car is very difficult unless you are looking out the windshield when looking through a side window. Even then, all that you are really seeing is light and dark spots. Sure, when you are right up against the window, then you can see into the car. But, it isn't all that easy either.
So, hopefully this helps you make a decision.

Thanks everyone for the pics. I'm leaning towards 20% all around. worse case scenario, i can always tint another 35% over it. my only issues are with the light rear dashboard it looks light looking in. also, around the edge of the rear window is a black ring associated with the defogger, that if you put too dark of a tint it looks funny. Im going to try and do something this weekend, i will post pics when it gets done! thanks again so much!
