to see the pic you need to copy and paste the link into the address bar for some reason
if you ask me i would get the same all round coz IMO it looks like a van when you have darker on the back and lighter on the front

chris_uk - same as me 20% backs and 33% fronts look good to gether mate - the back will be just as dark as jasons but the front will be darker than his, thats what you want wasnt it??
When you look at them they look virtually the same, so it wont look like a van, but once your inside the car you can see out of the fronts better than the back...... if you see what I meen.

Its all down to opinons.
Chris - when you get there, there will be some samples you can look at...... you should then be able to chose the ones you want - as I just said its your car so make it look the way you want

I was right 
Look good if I was getting the same all round it would have to be 33% as they dont have 35%. But Im getting darker at the back (i think)

Whilst we're on the subject, who things a medium tint would look good on my car?
I've always thought on red cars if the windows are totally black it looks tacky.
Photoshops welcome of this pic here:
They look quite dark anyway sometimes, i'm not sure wot i should do

They wont do 20% all round mate - they dont normally do 33% on fronts as they dont normally go darker than 35% - But I said PLEASE about 100times and they said ok
Yeah get it 20% on the backs - jasons looked good at the back, just wasn't dark enough on the fronts IMO (his were 37% fronts) so 33% should look cool.
