50% at most 35% This is 50% front windows 20% on the rears (if you look at the passanger window threw the windshield you can see the 50% better) [![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v467/badnewsmini/01%20ALLROAD/36aa0c19.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v467/badnewsmini/01%20ALLROAD/36aa0c19.jpg)](http://smg.photobucket.com/user/badnewsmini/media/01%20ALLROAD/36aa0c19.jpg.html) this is just 50% [![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v467/badnewsmini/jetta/800a0a43.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v467/badnewsmini/jetta/800a0a43.jpg)](http://smg.photobucket.com/user/badnewsmini/media/jetta/800a0a43.jpg.html) ---

35% ? I’ve been thinking about getting my truck done, maybe 50% though. ---

Best guess is about 35%, looks to be about what my truck is tinted for the front side windows. ---

32.68% Keep in mind most factory windows are tinted 70% so when you add a 35% as shown, the darkness increases slightly. Anything over factory 70% is illegal in NYS on the front windows. ---

> [@JayS](#): > > Guy I knew used to say the same about his 750iL, then he got his first tint ticket in Amherst. 🙂 Again not a Corvette Choko and a number of my other friends with vettes had 5% and never had any issues. It’s the same shit with Mustangs/Camaros/etc and loud exhaust even Amherst doesn’t care…I lived 5min from APD for years with various levels of loud exhaust/tint/slicks and had 0 issues. ---
