Anyone who has an 2009 FX or up please post a picture of your two front windows tinted and explain what % of tint it is. Thanks alot!! I'm trying to decide if I should go with 35% or 20% tint. The back windows are all tinted 20% from the factory, so I want a near match.
 
also remember after market tints are going to look lighter than the factory ones so you might want 20 or 15 depending what film you choose

When you look at it from the inside the car, does it match the rear good? Any trouble with cops? And how hard is it to see out of at night time? Thanks!

thats good cause sometimes it dont look right:-)
 
20% tint is not going to give you much trouble at night. Now 5% is a different story.... ;)
 
I was pulled over in my Acura over a year ago, it was 5% tints faded to 7.7% according to the officer's little device. I got away with a warning and was told to take it off and that I was in their "system", so if I got caught again I would get fined. I think the fine is $180+ for illegal tint, but 5% is back on the FX, it looks too good to be without it.
 
Being in NYC, you will be harassed for your tint eventually. They are now doing a tint check occasionally coming off of the Manhattan bound lower level of the 59th street bridge. They wave cars to the side and ask for you to roll up your window. Also I have been pulled over a few times by the same cop in Times Square. He approaches cars at red lights and checks your tints while you're stuck there.

The fines here aren't horrible either... plus I know they are illegal and are a perfectly valid reason to be pulled over so I never complain about getting popped for them.
 
I have 20% in the front. It's been raining for 3 days in Montreal but sun tomorrow so i'll try and get a wash and take a photo. Had 35's on before and stripped them off
