its about 28% in front and 15%? in back its great quality but some duct tape left some residue on the rear window. I can get my car done for $100 from a friend i know at a shop, He just doesnt want to deal with taking it off,

Yep, you coat your windows with it and then press garbage bags to it for about 30 mins.... ( Smells like crap.) Then go to town with a razor.

OK put newspaper on your window and spray it w/ windex and let it set there until it drys.....then once its dry and stuck to the window when you peel of the newspaper the tint will come off w/ it

Yea me and my friend bought the window tint remover from Auto Zone and just sprayed it on and let it dry. I didnt even cover it and it worked just fine.

BAD CALL ON THE RAZOR. Some fucking moron i had remove my tint and he used a razor. The trunk window curve is reallly weird. He scratched the shit outa the back window. IF you use are razor be VERY careful. Good luck.

Yeah, don't use a razor on the back glass. I thought I could do it if I was careful enough, but in the course of removing an entire hatch worth of tint you slip once or twice and half of your back window no longer defrosts. Oh well, I wanted that speedglass and magnus fiber hatch anyway...
