True...dark smoke would look a little more even with the front.....limo is probably a touch too dark ;)

Remember on those photos you\'re actually looking at TWO tinted windows, one behind the other.

IMO, go for light smoke all the way round.

go for light smoke all the way around

unless u want complete privacy and the place your gettin windows done allows it, go for a midnight shade all the way around. However, I believe this is illegal so the police could stop you and make you peel the tint off.

light smoke :thumbs:
