1 thing at a time, we still need blessings on the other. I think though that once that is done, we are good to go.

Well, I have sent an email, and a couple of phone calls to Ford. I had their blessing on using the emblom, but they were giving me another form of grief, I would like to give them another week, if they do not come through, then we dump the Ford Logo and just move on, sad though.

yep, if you ask to have the rear matched you'll usually get 25%. just did 35% on my wife's expedition and i wish i would have gone with 25; her interior is light gray so it doesn't look that dark.

i did 35% on my side and rear windows in my truck. i like it alot.

my buddy has a supercrew with factory rear tint that he had tinted even more, had his side windows done 5%, and his windshield done like 25%... and its a black truck with black interior. talk about dark!!!

That's what I got, grey on the inside. I thought it would be darker inside at night but it's not bad at all. Can still see the mirrors good. I did get the 18% on mine, that's what the shop said the back is. Maybe that's the closest they had. From about 10 away all the windows look the same.
