Default Factory tint?

Is the Factory tint Charcoal colored or Smoke colored? I wanna buy some tint and I'm thinking it's a Charcoal? Any help would be appreciated.

I thought so The smoke looks more gray/blue to me if I remember correctly.
I figured the back at being 18%. I'm going lighter than that for the front sides anyways(35%), so I just wanna make sure the tint is going to be close so when I'm inside looking out, the fronts don't look blue and the backs brownish! They need to be close in color or it would look ridiculous? At least it would to me.
