I did a search and didn't see a thread dedicated to this - looking for pics of your tint jobs.  I'm getting mine done at the end of the month and still need to decide on the percentages front and rear. 

Please post pics and comment with the percentage front and rear.

Thanks in advance!

So I'm rockin' Llumar all around including windshield.  The windshield is AirBlue80 (legal clear), front doors are CTX ceramic 15%, and the rears (factory tinted already) were matched to the front with I think it was 40%, also CTX. 

CTX and AirBlue cost more, but in the desert heat on an all-black car inside and out, I'm happy to have it and I consider it money well-spent.



It looks like I have a banner tint on my windshield but I don't.  That's the stock tint interacting with the AirBlue.
I don't have an EB but I am an avid modder and happy to help the community and learn/grow.  Pretty good with audio and wheels, my build and discussion threads are here in the forum.  2013 Flex AWD N/A

Audio:  Dayton Reference home speakers in front stage, incl. 2-way passive custom pillars 2.5" mid, 3/4" tweet, 2-way passive custom center channel 5" mid, 3/4" tweet, 8" midbass in doors, Vibe UK amps, JBL MS8 processor, Optima Yellow-top custom-wired, Exile subs in spare tire well

Mods: H&R, K&N, 22x9 & 22x10 3 piece forged wheels 265/35-22 Toyos, SCTX4 w/ 91 oct. Torrie tune

It was tinted when I bought it so I can't be 100% sure but I am thinking its 35% on everything but the windshield. I had 20% on my GP GXP and it was darker than this. Back in the day I always went 5% all around. That was dark!

Thanks everyone for the pics so far! 

I need to go 55% in the front - legal in IA is 70%.  I had 55% front 35% rear on my last car.  I want to go darker in the back but I can't decide if i want to take it all the way to 5% in the back. 

What's your opinion?  Any downsides to going with 5% in the back with 55% on the front doors

LOL, I never went past 35. Stupid inspection stations in Texas. Luckily in PA they don't say anything at inspection. Just the cops that pull me over.
