Default Window Tinting Help! 😳

I have a charcoal gray 2004 crossfire and am planning to get tint all around. Any opinions on what percentage to go for that's legal and doesn't look stupid?? I live in SC so I think legal is 27%

35% is legal in Texas and darker on the rear is allowed. The 35%looks good. Too heavy on the rear will make backing up at night a pain in the butt.

I wouldnt go lower than 30%. The 5% does make a slight difference in darkness.

Thank you! I think I'm going to go with 35% on side windows and 30% on back. Sound good?

I want the one that looks like a mirror but I think it is illegal :/ +I am not talking about a lot of reflection..just a little, so it will be silverish and match my car paint
