window tint
The GA law on the front windows is 32%. I can't find 32% film, so I'm going with 35%. My question is, should I put 35% all the way around, or put 35% on the front and 20% or something in the back? I want the darker tint, but is it gonna look uber-goofy with the 2 different shades? I know my uncle had 2 different shades on the Subaru, but I'm not sure what % they were and I don't know how the 35% and the 20% compare to each other.
I'm not sure but your factory windows might have a tiny bit of tint to them already. So 35% on top of factory may put it right at the 32% limit anyway. And yes, go ONE shade, however, some people do the sides one shade and the REAR window darker.

Knowing from experience, you should either go lighter in the front darker in the back (don't do too big of a jump or it will look really bad) or go legit, the way cops check window tint is a little meter which shines a light beam through the window and gives them a reading. they also sometimes do the driver'* license check through the window. Anything lower than the legal limit in your area results in a set time period to get it removed and you will be back to where you started from. Another way to get dark window tint legally is to get a note from your optometrist that says you are allowed to have dark window tint. hope this helps you out.

Tint the back darker then the front. You have to use a good brand of tint or you will notice the difference. But I have 10% on the back 3 windows and 30% on the front 2 windows and you really can't tell. Either way, it looks good though.
