Window Tint

Before I order some window tint I wanted to get your opinions on what the best match to the factory tint is in regards to color. I have found smoke, grey, and charcoal colors. This will be on the front doors of a 2007 F-150 Screw. Thanks!

Thanks deapee and futurpilot. I greatly appreciate you sharing your insight. I really wanted to get the color right on this job. The factory tint almost has a greenish shade to it and I believe that was throwing me off a little.

18% Suntex Carbon Series will match the factory tint perfect.

x3 the SolarGard Smoke 20%. Did the fronts on my 04 Screw and it's a great match, looks perfect on the outside, just a little different on the inside but very close. If you're thinking of doing it yourself check out solartint.com. They cut it to the shape of your window, basically just peel and stick. OK it's a little more than that but pretty simple, I did mine in 45 min, it was my first time. I'll try to get some pics this weekend.
