Default Getting tint tommorrow...IDEAS!

I plan on gettting some Tint for my car tomorrow. I had 5% on my old car, but I dont want it that dark, cause it will look stupid. I was wondering what u all thought I should go with.

I was thinking 15% all around and the front window strip too.
LMK what ya think.

I have drivin with 5 Percent before and not had problems, I drive with my windows down ALL the time, so it isnt that big of a deal. But I was sorta goin for the JDm look, but I want something that isnt too dark. I fgured 15 would be good.
Anyone got pics!?

I had 30% and it looked good. Luminx. Also got that because it looks light from the outside but darker on the inside. Cops didn't bother me.

I had 18% on my last car, and I plan to get about 25% on my new one. I think 20 is plenty dark.

I would never go lighter than 15% on vehicle tint. 10% is perfect IMO.

I had 15% on my old 93 Coupe and I loved it. Perfect darkness in my opinion. If you drove the 5% u understand my only problem, backing up at night, especially when its raining.
