Default Window Tint

Anyone ever go to one of these shops for window tint?
A girl with a yellow Mustang at the Downriver Cruise told me to go to....either it was Allstars or Auto One. I cant remember which one it was... They are near each other on Dix and Goddard in Lincoln Park, ( Michigan ) One of those they told me to stay away from, that's the problem...lol
btw what % looks good , not too dark, not too light Thanks guys

I have 5 in the back and 35 in the front. For me it works and blends well from front to back.

Fastlane that looks AWESOME!!! How do you like the 5% at night though??? Right now I have 20% in front and 15% in back and I really want to get 5% all around but im worried you wouldnt be able to see much at night, I like to back in everywhere so im a little worried

I have Metallized Llumar Tint 35% all around.

I can't believe you people put 5% on your cars. You can't even see out the windows at night with that stuff. It's like wearing sunglasses in a dance club, or a bar at night.

20% all the way around for me. I find it's a nice mid-point between looks and safety - both for me seeing out (especially @ night), and for any police officer who (God forbid) might pull me over one day and needs to see in while sitting in his car behind me.

20% its dark enough but will keep that cops out of your hair, btw make sure you get your moleskin felt installed before you tint your windows or else they will get all scratched up

15% rear three only. And you can see fine at night. No problems.
