Default Tinting

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and just bought my tc sunday night. In California to keep the tint legal you can only have 70% on the front side windows, and anything on the back windows. Should I do them all 70% to keep it looking uniform, or do 70% on the front sides and darker on the back ones?? thanks for you input

I believe 70% is close to stock.

I did 35% on the windows and 20% on the hatch. (Wish I would have done 5% on the hatch instead.) No problems yet and it has been a year and a half. Yes! I'm in CA also.

I've got 50% on the driver/passenger and 5% on the back 3. It looks good to me but I admit getting nervous when the police are around. I'm in the Bay Area.
