I had my front glass tined at 25% to match the bestop tinted rear windows I got off of Quadratec. I have seen people buy some kind of smoke screen black paint and paint the plastic soft top windows. Ij my opinion it looked horrible and you could bearly see out of them. Money well spent on the bestop tinted windows!

Nice thread, I just tinted my side windows myself. I'm also tinting the soft top windows as well. So far I only have the smaller triangles tinted (I ran out of film). I I'll be tinting the rest soon. It's not so hard, especially if you have a hair drier (just used my gf's) and press all of the liquid bubbles out. Make sure to pick a Cheap squeegy too.

I had my fronts tinted to match the rear factory tint. Really like the look. It's illegal here, but I don't care..

mine are at 15% as well to match the rear, love it. Just don't do it on your own, pay someone to do it unless you are really good at it.

Did mine last week, 5% all around, rolling the dice with a fix-it-ticket, oh well.

I have the factory tint which is nice and dark on the rears but I put a layer of 20% over the driver/passenger front doors for added darkness
