20% on the rears, nothing on the front. though 35% is usually safe, I sometimes drive down to Santa Barbara, a land where cops are cops and sheep are scared
i got my tint at Omega as well.
Vince is a good guy.
i did 35% on all windows except the windshield, and didn't like it it was too light, so i whent back and got 20% done. i like it much better.

hey thanks for the reply's. how dark is 35%? im thinking of doing that all around with a 6" strip of 5-10% pictures of 35% would be great thanks. also my dad is a cop and he says CHP and moto cops will pull you over in a second for dark windows its like there number one thing so can you still see in the dark with 35%? thanks a bunch.

you probalby have better luck coming to a meet and checking out some cars there.
it is really hard to see what the car will look like out of the little samples they have at shops.

vincent is awesome...just come to UCKK most nights he's there.
I paid either $175 or $185 for all 7 window on my wagon.
I went 20 back 35 front.
I've found that set up I don't get crap from the popo. The fronts are a bit lighter than the back and they can still see you in them so they generally don't trip. I had the same levels on my civic and I got every fix it ticket you could imagine in that thing and never one word on the windows. Had my wagon done for probably 6 months.....nothing.
Vincents work is awesome and his prices are unbeatable.
Plus he's a damn cool cat.
I've got nothing but great comments on the look of my tint.
If you come down to UCKK you can check out tons of vincent's work..just ask around.
I know for sure there are 20/35 cars and 35/35 cars there. If you come look for the white 04 wagon with yakima racks up top. That's my car. 20/35. Feel free to pull the doors open and take a peak at the quality.

blueburr... check out my pic at the top of this page. 20% in the rear, nothing in the front. i never was down for that look, but in actuality the added darkness from the rear naturally shades the front windows. I am very please with the outcome and never have to worry about a po-po pulling me over for nothing.
not that i have anything to hide
