Go 15% all the way around (excluding windshield).
When I had my celica i Loved it, didnt get busted by the cops (although when i saw cops i rolled my window down just for safe measure) and got lots of compliments. Visability at night wasn't bad either, I was impressed.

Here's mine, F50/R35 a much cleaner look in my opinion. It's either tint all or tint none, especially on a sedan.
Haven't had any troubles in Richmond/New West/Burnaby for the last 8 months I've owned the car.
When it rains it makes it a lot darker too lol. |

Don't do anything stupid and don't drive next to cops. Or roll down your windows. Simple. Posted via RS Mobile |

I personally wouldn't do dark tint on your fronts.
1 - red car, supposedly more eye-catching therefore higher potential of getting busted
2 - already a sporty car with mods, less leniency from cops if busted

No tint ever.
edit: spend your money on some decent corner signals and a front lip.

been shopping around for a new bumper (see crack) and i might have found one with a lip actually, so that might be coming up :-p
as for turn signals, these are from the last owner (in my defense), but i do prefer the clear signals - i'm keeping them! hahaha
keep hte tint pics coming!!

I prefer the clear corner signals on the red integras so keep them on.
However, I preferred the orange corner signals on my black integra

| No, it will only encourage you. Tint sucks. It chops up the flow of the look of a car.

to answer your questions:
1. i care. Hence the thread!
2. i'm not sure i like tint just in the back. Looking for advice to see what it'll look like etc. I don't wanna spend even $10 souping up my car if the result will be a car that looks WORSE. Also, for me $150 is not "only" $150. For $150, I could buy approximately 150 slices of pender st. pizza. That's approximately half a year of lunches.
3. You're right, it's not like dropping $2g. $2gs would buy you years of delicious pender st. pizza.
