Default Does anyone have a good source for tint comparrisons?

Some shops go by percentage, some by a number (1-5). I have noticed some shops will only offer 15%, 30%, 45%, but when i have seen pictures of cars with 15% tint it looks pitch black, and 30% tint is really light, then in parking lots I will see *the* tint I want but never an owner around to question what shade (looks like 23% maybe? something in between).

My bud has a VR6 and he had his rear's done "#1" which he believes to be 15% (black). His rears he got done with a "#2" and are supposed to be 30% but again are way WAY lighter then the rears, which would make me think by #5 the tint would be nearly transparent. Im looking for something in between pitch black and easily visible.

Default Extreme Tint in Santa Clara

I've used them on my M3 and my A3 and they did a great job on both.

Default I would say EXTREME TINT or....

PremiereMobile in Fremont

I've gotten 3 cars done at EXTREME TINT. Let them know Quincy referred you.

They also do clear bra but I got my clear bra done at Premier Mobile. They did a fantastic job!
