I need the rear to be DARK, probably 5 %, don't want creepers to notice sub so easily.
I hear 5% is a very real danger at night backing into places and seeing cops in the rear view.

I had 0% done on all my cars prior to the Z (except my vw bug) but after thinking about it, the darker tint made the Z look a little too "thug". The last thing I wanted is to take away from the beauty of the Z.

Now, the only time I ever had an issue with the darker tint, is when it was in the middle of the night, with no street lights, while it was raining. In that situation, I had to be a little cautious when pulling out onto roads and whatnot. Other than that, you'll be able to see just fine.

Personally, I think anything between 20% and 45% should look great on the Z. I ended up with 35%.

My friend has 5% all around on his firebird, I drove it once at night, super hard for me to see out of, and I felt very unsafe.

I'd never do that on my side windows, but it should be fine for the rear, I use side mirrors 90% of time for normal driving and about to have a back up camera anyways.
