Not really. When backing up, you're using your side mirrors anyway, so not that big of a deal. My last two rides had the same level of tint. Does a real good job of protecting my gear and keeping the inside of the car nice and cool.

I have 5% all around (says f*ck the po-lice kinda, don't it?), and it is hard to see at night. xD But I don't mind, I just lower my windows a bit when I need it. I wanted the look too much during the day

I would have loved to tint the front window 35% to match my front doors/a pillar triangles.

Here's a pic I took last night whilst in the middle of moving. Now that I look at it, its not the best pic... sorry

50% on the front, what pussys. I have all 5 of my cars blacked out. Looks so much better if you use the same tint % all the way around.

i have 20 in the front and 5 everywhere else and i see perfect. i got mine done at my house for $150. johnsons film cost more then solar guard. personally if anyone spent over 175 thats a little pricey for tint nowadays.

if anyone lives in san diego and wants tint done. give this guy a call. he does all the at system trucks(armored vehicles) and its lifetime warranty aswell.
619-944-8007 ask for binney. hes done a couple of fits after mine so he knowns whats up. $150 and he will even drive to your house.

yea thats the one, just call them up, they do it super fast, and its pretty good quality. i got all windows done plus a 4 inch strip on the windshield. i am not too sure on the % tho...i just did everything limo tint dark, except the front windows which i just did a tad bit lighter. i believe they are open everyday. as for the warranty, they told me if it ever bubbles, come back to them and they'll redo it, ask em just in case

i live in LA where the cops dont have anything to do but pull u over for the most assinign sh*t...like intake decible sound levels and especially tints in the front side windows...cali doesnt let u touch the front side at all...but if i had a choice id do 5% all around including the windshield window upfront...someone named Ro Ja or something like that had it done... i gotta admit having ur front windshield tinted is pretty dope even tho it would really fcuk up ur visibility of the road
