I say 3% all around. Windshield too.
But if you want to be legal, check this out:

I like 5% all the way around and i donno if i would trust ebay imo tint shops dont usually charge that much maybe around $120 depending on where u go n less if its under the table cuz less then 20-25% is illegal in most states

you aint getting a FC tinted around here for $100, not even a convertible
I know its cheaper in Florida so have it done at a shop, if you want to keep the cops
happy I always get away with 35% front and 20% rear. Doing them darker makes backing up and even sometimes turning difficult at night if there are no street lights there
Keeping the cops away is always a good thing, they will pull you over for something stupid like that when you might have something ELSE going on that you dont want to be hassled by cops

I have 5% on the rear, had 10% on the doors, but took it off & put on 35%. I have noticed tint is never what they say it is when installed. Everytime I get pulled in the Spec V or the Speed6 the cops say it reads 12% I had 20% installed on both of them. Never had the 7 checked. Around here tint will run between $150 to $180. Well here's a pic.

rotordad- the factory windows have a slight tint to them already, so when you put 20% in it will read even lower
I have had every single vehicle I have ever owned tinted, 35% front, 20% rear.
Only time I got hassled for tint was by a dike cop who asked me to roll the windows up on my convertible when I was driving and doing nothing wrong in the middle of the day- but those are 20%
I had a lexus with like 15% and amazing I never got a ticket because you could into the car AT ALL

Good point about the factory tint. We don't get pulled that much, around once a year. LOL I never got pulled in our BMW it had 20% on the doors & 5% on the back.

On a somewhat related note, dark tint = afternoon road-head. I highly recommend it. You get what you pay for. So if you're down with a bubbly purple hack job then go the cheap route.

I have 5% rear. For those wondering about price. I think I payed $150. Than again everything is more expensive in canada.
Tint on the windshield? That's really dumb. Must be fun getting chased by cops.
