Ok so I've had a really hard time deciding what %, color, or if I should even put it on.

Here's what the car looks like now, I like how it looks with no tint but seeing as I live in Colorado its not very practical plus my seats are leather.

I think 30% would look great on yours. Maybe even 35% (sort of light tint).

Anyways, you posted on the wrong section of the forum.

I have had it on for about 7 months now and have yet to have anything said to me about my tint. I have had around 4 instances with police and not a single has brought it up.

If you get pulled over or drive past a cop, I immediately roll down my windows.

Haha I do the same.. I've been pulled over 7 times in the first 4 months of this year haha.. now I just roll with my windows down most of the time.. they still follow me sometimes though but they end up U-turning back after a while :lawl:

I don't know about Colorado but here in California, the front 2 windows have to be 35% or lighter. I got 17% all around :doh:

35% should be safe enough.

35 isn't even dark though.. I wish I could see a car with 27% thats the limit in colorado.

If its not black enough I might go with 20% regardless, but I don't really care about a fine I'm just afraid they might slice the tint cause they're :huh:

Since you said you just wanted protection for your interior/leather.. just about anything 35 and under is good enough (I think they all have the same 99% UV protection or whatever).. otherwise, you're just going for the looks then, am i right?
