RE: Tint Question
Did they darken the rear tint for the 2006 trucks? You guys keep saying that your rear tint is darker than the 20% on the front windows, I know that my 2005 rear windows are lighter than the 20% that I had put on the fronts. If they did change the rear tint %, that clears up my confusion.
I did figure out why the rear windows on my "before" pic look darker. The tree in my neighbors yard has all of the leaves on it and it is giving a dark backdrop for the windows. In the "after" pic the tree is bare, lighter backdrop.

RE: Tint Question
idk why they would make any changes to tint levels of stock vehicles, if my 15 goes on and there is a big dif. really noticable, just might have to put some 35 on the rears to even it out a little. no way should fronts be noticably darkerthan therears

RE: Tint Question
tell your tint guy that you think the rears are 17% he should have some. I sat in the truck today and looked out both. I think the 20% is just a smidge lighter. it might even be 20% because I used cheap tint. Just have him check it out and see what will be the closest match. make sure he doesnt use any tint that has a blue or green hue to it. it really shows up. (mine has a greenish hue, due to the scratch resistantcoating.)

RE: Tint Question
20 over the rears would prob be too dark. ive had too dark, and i dont want too dark. a lot of parrallel sp parkin around here, too big of a hastle not to be able to see out the back window. im not the best at estimating distance.
