Here's a side view of my burb. 70% rear and 25% front.
Just debadged the truck and it looks a lot better all black. Only chrome I have is the bull bar.
The tinted wdws go a long way. I had 50% in the front and was coaxed by LEO's to remove same. It was too dark at night anyway, but might go a shade or 2 darker.

Don't forget that the front side windows already have some tint so you can't just put a 30% tint on and be legal as it will be something less than 30%. The actual tint of each window is etched in the glass.

Thats true Shark, but it has minimal effect. So I put another 10% on and there is little to no difference. Want to have a little something on there, but I am all for LEO safety perception too.
Will have to compromise.

wow that looks nice... but the $2,000+ some I owe discover is sadly going to have to come first... maybe some day next summer... i also just dropped like $100 in LED lighting for my boat trailer + another $100 for a new winch and bumpers... new axles / brakes come next year...

any inside photos? specifically where the window meets like your arm rest?

or any of the top of the window with it down 6"?

is it 100% like the rears?

so, if PA law is 70% of light must go through the window, my max tint is?

No photos for you but I do know from lots of tint jobs that:

1) There should be no line where window meets armrest
2) There will probably be a 1/16 of an inch or less untinted area at the top of the window - even the best shops do this.
3) Rears aren't really tinted - the glass is treated so yes they are 100%
4) Don't know this answer - call your local tint shops and see what they say.

What jeffbco said. Min line @top, none @ bottom. Rear incl hatch was tinted by me and there is no intrusion of light. All rear wdws match
