I got mine tinted 35% (legal limit in MA) and I wish that I had done 20% on the rear big window to make the effect that all the windows are darker bc less light is let in through the back however I dind't do that as they suggested...now i wanna get it, but they won't take off the old tint bc they said it will most likely mess up the heat and radio antenna built into the back window and they don't wanna go over the tint alraedy on there bc it might not come out perfect...I do have a lifetime warantee on my tint so maybe I could accidentally break my rear window at some point...haha

The lifetime warranty is not meant to cover window breakage. It's in case the tint discolors, peels or has some other defects. When you "accidently break your rear glass, the tint will help hold the galss in place.

they need to be removed first, otherwise its gonna look like crap from the instead and i dont even think it would stick to the old ones, would look horrible. I went with 20% all around in NY. Havent really gotten pulled over with them.
