Matching factory tint

I am trying to get my windows to look the same all the way around, but I cant find amber tint. Do they still make it and does it match ford factory amber?

And then I am going to add mirror fade tint.

Question amber tint?

What kind of vehicle is it? I've never noticed an amber "privacy" glass tint to any Ford vehicle?? I matched mine up with 20% black limo tint

It's a smoke tint. At around 23% from what I can remember. I have 34% on my fronts and it's just a little lighter than the rears, which helps keep the cops from noticing it as much.

It took the cops about 2 months to notice my 34%. $100 down the drain.

noticeable

Hmmm, in GA, it used to be 35%.. I've since heard that its lowered now. I have never had trouble and always used 20%, however. I have 5% on my 02 Mustang GT and the cops notice the Off Road exhaust w/ 2 chamber flowmasters, long before they can even see I have windows tinted....
