time to go another layer on the rear glass and doors to get the OEM privacy glass darker and then a 80% on the windshield ;)

So the 35% matched the rear tint?
nah it doesnt. I did a similar thing as the OP and it was close but since its tint vs stained privacy glass its not a clean match. I ended up making the rest of the windows darker. looks like a cop truck now lol

No it’s not an exact match. It’s a little lighter and the color is a little different. But I did not want to go darker. Front side tint is against the law where I am. I didn’t want a ticket or the have it removed. This is a “safe” option for me. Here is a full side view pic.

20% I feel like is always a good match with the rears on most trucks, although I prefer darker but that should give you the matched look you want.

What brand/line did you use for your 20% tint. Looks good, but not all 20% would have same color profile.

Would definitely recommend ceramic tint if you can afford it. The heat rejection is nothing short of awesome. I had carbon tint initially, but had it removed due to an installation issue. Went to the ceramic in the same darkness, and I'm a happy camper.

I went with 35% for legal compliance and it's not too far off from matching the back windows. 20% would match perfectly.
