    20 ceramic on the sides and 50 ceramic on the windshield. Can’t live without tint down here.

    30-35%? Not sure lol. Had dealer match the rear when i bought the truck. From the inside you can see the difference. Rear glass is lighter because it isn't "tint". outside matches spot on. Superwhite1.jpg

    But ossifer, I don't want to get in trouble by you :)

    good thing my Captain hasn't came running around with the tint meter again...

    I'll try to grab one asap.

    Had a individual pull on my door handles, with me in it the other day because they couldn't see in the front windshield. They were legit hands on the windows trying to see in before pulling the handle. They got a surprise of a lifetime and almost shit their pants when I rolled down the window :)

    Mine measured 28% on the meter and they are just dyed, no UV protection. I went with 30% ceramic on front and it's a match for me. It's just too expensive these days. They wanted 300 for the whole truck. Ha. No thanks.

    I did 20 for the rear and 35 for the front...shhh...don’t tell the police that. 35 isn’t that dark but you can’t see me at night.

    Rims are Method Grid 309's with Nitro Ridge grappler 33's. Slightly lifted with eibach springs and bilstein 5100's on the first notch. Rears are AAL. Website I ordered the kit from said 3 inch lift. It's more like 2 lol.

    The factory "Privacy glass" is 18%. I have 35% on my back 3 windows and 20% on the front 2. Matches pretty darn close.

    I bought my truck used and it already had the front tinted. Took it to a tint shop last weekend and the tint guy said the front was 20% and the rear was the factory privacy glass, no tint. Told the tint guy to make it 15% all around. Not sure what he used but I think it looks good.

    This is before (used with whatever tint the guy had before me)

    This is after (told the tint guy 15% all around
