Anyone have photos of Lava Gray with 35% Tint?
Looking to see what Lava Gray looks like with 35% tint...anyone? Also who feels the 35% is the way to go? Looking to reduce some heat in the car, but not go too dark...thanks.

Elton thanks for the pic, is that 35%? Looks good. Those are BBS rims, super nice. Does anyone just have rear 2 doors tinted and rear window? Here in CA. I was told its not legal for any tint
on front 2 doors..Chef your 20% looks great too. The tint place I went to had 35% or 15%, I think 15% is too dark, so leaning towards the 35%....any opinions ?

HOW REFLECTIVE CAN THE TINT BE IN CALIFORNIA?

Got the 35% tint today, came out nice but have a question. Should you be able to see any line around the small triangular windows in the rear (the ones that do not roll down). It seems the tint film was not
put all the way to the edge on the small windows, so you can see a faint line around them from the outside. Before I go back to the tint shop I was wondering if this is normal or did they get lazy? Thanks!
