from what i was told...you cant match the back exactly because they tint them 17%...i dont have any pictures of my truck yet but i have 5% on all the backs and the 2 fronts and then i have 35% on the windshield...and around here, any tint on the front sides is illegal haha

Nice looking truck there Kardiak!!!
Hows the mileage with the 285's?
15% will match factory rear tint...thats what I had on my dodge and it matched perfectly and I will be doing the same on this truck.

My favorite actually is when I take a group of people somewhere and the last person comes out and opens a door to a seat already taken because they couldn't see in. lol

15%-20% will both look close. I went all the way and got 5% all around and 50% on windshield. Now that Ive had tint this dark on my last 4 vehicles I cant drive anyone elses car w/o tint. I feel like theres a magnifying glass on top of me.

I did 20% on all windows, making the rear doors and back glass essentially 5%. Dark enough, but I can still see at night. Works well for me. I used a guy that came to my house and did it. Cost me $120 for all windows and a front strip. The best part is, I got to sit on my couch and watch TV in air conditioned comfort while he did it.
This is the best pic I could find of a side view on a sunny day.....

15% on the two fronts is way too light for me with all that extra light coming in through the front =/
