We've tested the tint on some fronts with the state troopers tint meter and it was like 7%. Supposedly the total tint can't exceed a certain amount in my state, but I think they have gotten clarifyed now so that the regulation only applies to the added percent tint.

Good Luck!

The tint shop that I work at uses 15% Johnson Window Films tint to match the factory tint on most vehicles...Different brand tints will have different percentages to match the factory tint
