35 sides, 15 or 20 rear?

Guys I know this has come up alot, but I'm trying to liven up the discussion topics, and also find some answers for myself. I've searched and haven't been able to find the answers i'm looking for. So if you could help, I want dark but not too dark. Something that would flow with the car, and not too much of an attention grabber. I like the 20's all around idea, but I have black on black......hence, probably too dark. So I figured 35% sides (which would still keep me legal), and either 15% or 20% on the rear windshield. How much darker do you think it would make it between 15 and 20? Any suggestions? Any pics? Preesh in advance!

want to stay legal looking. go for the 35 on the side and 15 on the rear.
when I say sides I mean front and back, rear window behind your back seat 15. the 15 will make your 35 look alittle darker cause less light is coming in from the back

If you get 20% all around, you'll think it isn't dark enough but 20% all around is the best setup IMO. A friend has 5% all around and it looks amazing but I don't want to be hassled by popo.

If you're going to tint the car, get the same % tint on all the windows. IMO it just doesn't look right otherwise. I have 20% all around and have only been harassed twice in about 2 1/2 years.
