Default Window tint

What are some good brand I should use? I have heard of Lumar and sunguard. Are those good? Also is 35% and 20% alot of diff?
Will car color and interior make the diff how dark it's going to look?
Can you see through 20% tint window?

Go with ILuminar or Lumar (forgot the name). Lifetime warranty from fading or bubbling. How dark you go will depend on your state's laws. I'm illegal. Here in Florida the legal limit is 28%, I have 18%. 28% was too light and you could see inside. I have a silver coupe with dark charcoal interior. The 18% is awesome. I could see inside during the day, but not much. And at night with moonroof visor closed, it's pitch black.
Hope that helps.

I agree that professionals will do a much better job. I've seen some horrible tints that people had put on themselves.

I got quoted $200 for tint ($160 for 4 windows and rear windshield+$20 cause it's illegal+$20 for the front strip)... but when I went to pick my car up, there was a different guy at the desk. He was like "$170". I was like "OK Thanks!" and got the hell out of there before they realized their mistake.

MMM... darkness...
