Default Which window tint closely matches OEM

I am going to tint my front windows. I would like it to closely match the OEM tint on the rear widows. I know film tint can't replicate the stock but Im sure I can get close.
Has anyone done this and which brand and level of tint worked for you.

x2 on the 20% that is what you will need to match the factory.

x3 on the 20%, also the best tinters are the guys that tint Hi-Rise buildings they use a very thick but none fading tint, it will last a long time not that cheap shit at R&S Strauss or PepBoys its called LLUMAR tint. You can look it up on the net you will never be able to forget their logo, so when one of the tinters tells you they got the good stuff tell them to show you the box it comes in. Then you will know. Good luck.

LLumar 20% seemed to be a pretty good match with the factory rear tint....
