How dark do you tint your Mustangs?

FYI that window tint from factory isn’t really tint film, it’s a dye in the glass. And FWIW, it’s equal to ~20% film. Thought I’d mention it since you mentioned minivan tints.
I never really thought about that, but it makes sense. I was pretty close with my guess of 15%-25% though!

75% on the front windshield, 30% driver/passenger, 15% for all rear. Ceramic all the way around. Tint guy offered me this new (slightly more expensive) form of ceramic tint, that is made to block heat. Had a heat lamp and held up 3 forms of tint, one being SWT, one being normal ceramic, and the last being the heat-blocking ceramic. Safe to say it almost eliminates 90% of heat while driving, if that's what you're after. Then again, sitting the car will always get it hot, but I will say it stays much cooler than my Civic with regular ceramic tint.

Sounds good. Do you know the brand they used?

I was wondering the same thing. I’ve used Xpel Prime XR plus since it came out and I really have loved it.

I prefer 20% on the sides of my vehicles and either a 5% windshield strip or 35% whole windshield.
