Default Titanium owner's please

I have been meaning to tint my windows since about 20 minutes before i bought my koup , so i feel like i should go ahead and use some of my tax return to do so. I could purchase and do them myself , i still have my digiclean tools , but im not gonna attempt it , its been awhile.. But beforehand , i just want to be sure exactly how i want it.

Im asking if a few of you guys can show me a few photo's of your koups..

from 20% to etc.. i just want idea's. It's only going to cost me 90 bucks , so its a tiny ordeal i have currently.... Wanna help me out guys? i lean towards 20% atm , but idk how dark thatll be on our cars..

Opinions are all welcome.

I have 20% and it's on bright silver, not titanium, but it's a rly nice tint. It's pretty dark but it makes the car look great..I have it all around...as for the sunroof, it already looks tinted from the outside if u can see it and from the inside, I personally like the ability to look out of it and it not be tinted but that's just me..

I know I don't own a Koup but figured this was going to be close enough. I have 35% in the front side windows, 20% in backseat windows, and 20% in rear window...Oh and 35% on front windshield which is 8" down the window. During the day there is enough light that gets through that the cops don't mess with me but gives me enough privacy...At dusk you can make out a figure but it's not like you know what I look like unless you know me and at night you can't see anything really. Hope this helps a little since we share same paint code.

Do you guys ever have to roll your windows down at night on dark areas that people might be walking?

I have 10% on my sedan.
If infact you do get 10-15%
It'll be easier reversing if you get white LED back up lights.
