PIC Request Tint Back only

Hey All,

I'm trying to decide to tint just the rear of my FIT, SUV style, or tint all the windows. Haven't seen any pics of 09 fit yet with just the rear section tinted.

2009 tint

I did 80 in the back and 50 to passenger and driver front but I will probably change the 50 to 80 soon. The tint guy I used is out of town now. I just decided i want them all the same for a more uniform look. Sorry no pics.

Thanks for the pic. Looks nice. I'm putting 5% on the rear and back because I want to minimize what people can see back there. I wouldn't go that dark in the front,

So I'm thinking 50% in the front or none at all. What do you guys think?

Looks nice! I'm getting tint soon but was worried about it looking funny without the front. The front side windows are so huge! I wish it was legal to do it all around the way around in CA. Not like people are abiding anyways... but I don't need to give them a reason to pull me over.

Quick question... has the car been lowered? The 17s appear to nicely fill out the wheel wells. I've heard others talk about running with 18s but I'm thinking they'd be way too big and cause a lot of problems.

Yes the car is lowered in that picture... 40mm up front and 45mm in the rear..... the rear is also running a 5mm spacer per side.....
