Kind of a random question, but do you have AC? If not, you're likely to be driving around with all windows down and only the rear window tinted.
On a side note, my wife has an Acura that is similar to your pearl white. I put 35% tint on it and thought it was too much. She jokes that I "pimped her ride"... I do like that you've thought it through with plans to match your stripes. You know how dark 20% is.

I think it would look good tinted. I have seen where the windows are tinted and they put two darker stripes on the back that follow the stripes. I have been thinking about doing this to my car when it gets done.

NICE CAR!! I am also thinkin about tint when mine is ready... Im mainly hoping it will help reduce the fading of the carpet and what not from the AZ sun. But I think it would look good with the stripes you got going. Good luck and be sure to post pictures when ya can!

I have always liked to be able to see the interior of classics through the windows. IMO it looks too dark but if you like it thats what counts! I really liked your before pictures with the slight hint of factory green.

if the first pics is what the original factory tint looks like, then my factory tint is long gone 
I'm thinking about tinting my windows just a little bit to help protect the interior, hide scratches, and add a little character.
I think your tint turned out great though. Even though it is dark, it fits the personality of your car so I think it works just fine. Great looking car!

It is dark, but it will help with these Ga summers. And no, there was no tint at all put on the windshield. The few inches at the top that have tint, either the factory tint or something the previous owners had done. I think it's a nice change to have the tint and the best part is i could always remove it a few years down the road if i want to.
