I got 5% on my back windows, I don't mind it but I would have liked a slightly ligher percentage so you can actually see though the windows slightly. Also, if you get the backs a bit lighter, they will blend with the other tint percentage better IMO.

I think most people go with 35% front and 20% back.
It sounds like you're going 50% front and darker than 20% back. The difference might be very noticable.

I have something similar like that too I'm not sure about the correct percentage though, all I know is it looks good on the yellow.
I'm sure your car will look sweet after it's done

If he's going one up from Limo tint, he's going about 5 - 10%, depending on the tint. Between even 10% and 50% there will be a massive difference. I have 20% all round and it's perfect. Dark enough that you sometimes need to roll down your windows to see out, but looks good with the black car.

Well I would get the 35% but here in Alberta you are allowed absolutely no tint on the front windows. And the lighter the better...Dont need any more tickets.
