Sounds like it'll look good.. not too dark not too light.. if I could go back in time I definitely would've gotten a lighter tint.. it gets hard to see at night, especially if there are no lights outside

should look good....35 in the front and 20 in the back wont look drastically different which is good cause u kinda want that uniform feel to it.........i have 20 in the front, 5 on the rear sides, and 20 on the back window...definitly at times is harder to see but i love it............

i actually like sunroof as is because it lets alil bit of light in but it doesnt make my car a sauna..........

good luck wit ur tints...just make sure u check for bubbles and everything else...shouldnt have a problem tho.....

im doin mine soon too, but im thinking 25% all around and 5% for the sunroof. since the car already has a dark interior this should be fine with the 25% and ill still be able to see out.

I know how you feel man.. I've been thinking of putting a small foglight or something on the rear bumper that'll turn on when you go into reverse I swear I can't see crap at night when I'm backing up.

It MIGHT.. the adhesive needs time to set in.. what would help speed up the bonding process is basically just leaving your car out in the sun. btw, does your car smell funky inside?
