Default *Updated w/ pics* Stock tint %?

Updates with pics post#9

Does anyone know what the % is for dealer tint, or what % the rear windows are. Looking to get the rest tinted about the same and 50% in the front.

stock is about 17% if you go with 15% it will match perfect.

I went with 20% in the front two windows. I looks like it matches perfectly (I think).
