My friend did 40% all around on his '09 STi and they did a custom tail light tint (the stock clear tail lights look awful). He's a picky fucker when it comes to parts and service on his cars. Everything came out awesome.
They do kicka$$ job. Me and onethreefive drove 160 miles roundtrip to get it tinted there. It was worth it. He actually gave a us a better deal since we drove that far but since the job was done right, we gave that back as tips.

True. If it's wet out, you do have to give longer drying time. Mine was done in the middle of the summer (80 degrees average) and I still gave it a 5 days drying time.

It's always the first thing I do - then I de-badge it, although with the name 'Nissan' on the brake calipers I'll have an extra job this time - must say I deeply prefer 'Brembo'.

What level of tint are your windows? - standard + photoshop?

photoshop? lol. no, no photoshop. I have them tinted with 5%. No problems for me seeing out at night because its good tint, and I have never had a legal issue with them being so dark (so far, knock on wood). I have been pulled over a few times in my other cars with 5% and had no problems. I just like the windows dark.

...then I am officially jealous! I'd love to have my tints that dark, then nobody could see how old and ugly I am

...but in the UK I'd be stopped all the time - it's not worth the hassle - good luck with yours - they're beautiful.
