Has anyone gone with a window tint for the front door windows that is a shade lighter than the back?

I cant hold myself back from getting the front door windows tinted but I dont think I want them as dark as the rear windows. If anyone has had them tinted a lighter shade than the back I would love to see how it looks. Thanks

Nope. Nobody. Ever. In the history of vehicles, has ever done this. NOBODY! /s

Search in google: Ford Maverick front window tint, then click the images section. Tons of pics. Just to speed things up.

This is exactly what I plan to do when I get my Maverick.

Thanks Montana......That just might save a bunch of people some time. I was brain farting on how the hell to search for that.

Immmmmmm baaaaaaaack. Well you were right to some degree. I looked at a bunch of jumbled pics with no info or option to click on links to go further into worm holes. I was able to find a couple that used 35% on the fronts. But hey...my question still stands. If someone has tinted the fronts a lighter old guy non gangsta style tint and has a good side view of it I would appreciate it.

I was told the factory rears were 20%, and 35% is the 'legal limit' in at least the handful of states I've lived in. I had them match the rears (20%) and it honestly doesn't seem very dark from the inside or at night. Ceramic tinting, and even the latest carbon tinting, have way better visibility than old tint used to.

I know this doesn't answer your request for pics of lighter front windows, but figured I'd throw it out there.

Hey I appreciate it.....any and all info is helpful for sure.

The dealer installed tint on the front driver and passenger doors. The product name was Valor. It's pretty hard to get a decent picture, but their website can do a simulation. I think mine is the light tint, almost imperceptive unless you really look for it. The truck was PPFed and tinted by mistake, but I said leave it on, and the price was $0.

Here is one shade lighter, my tint guy always goes darker, this time I asked please go one shade lighter. Barely can tell in some light. Very pleased with it. I was more worried about the scratches on plastic. They put sticky plastic over to protect, no scratches!...yet...

I got the same tint all-around, but the rear windows look darker due to the Maverick having a factory window tint coloration.

It usually takes a while to get some good replies on a forum. For anything pic related to get a good idea, just start googling the hell out of it and looking at google images lol. But I think the rears are 20% so you'd want something above that? Just keep in mind, as people have started to mention here, the color may be slightly different. It's only noticeable at certain angles though and if you are going lighter, not as noticeable.

Good luck!

I went a shade lighter on the front Windshield, 50%. Matched the front sides to the rear sides.

So the percent is the percent transmission number.

Limo tint (blackout) is 5%.

In California you can do any darkness you want on the rear window as long as you have two side mirrors. Yep. If you want only one side mirror on the driver's side you can. If the rear is untinted. You can have any darkness you want for rear side windows.

Fronts can only be 70% (transmission) so 30% dimmed.

You can use non-reflective of any tint for the "eyebrow" down to the AS1 line. Or 4" if there is no AS1 line. You can't legally tint the windshield below the eyebrow.
