Did anyone tint their front 2 windows (driver and passenger side) on their '21 Ford F-150 in Carbonized Grey, especially with the panoramic moon roof?

Looking to get the front window tinted but not sure if I want to go with 20% to blend with the 5% in the rears or 35%. Rears are already tinted in 5% on top of factory tint and have a 5% windshield tint brow. Post your pictures, maybe I can get a better idea before I take it in to get it done!

Did mine in 20%. Also did the windshield 5% and the sunroof at 20% I believe. I'm happy with the shade on the fronts though.

I have 35% on my front doors, and it matches the back pretty nicely, and it's not too dark at night to see out. Had 20% on another vehicle, and found it way too dark at night when in dark areas.

I agree 20% can be hard to see at night in some cases, but luckily for me I got used to it on my Evo X, just got hassled way too many times by local wannabe peace officers because it’s illegal to have the front tinted. Can be damned lol, getting tired of people peeping in and especially during the times at traffic lights lol. The 35% doesn’t look too bad on the front, any chance you have a photo of it in the sunlight? Just would love to see how it looks from the side. ??

I just had the dealership match the factory tint on the rear windows for the front. I like that they are all the same tint. Not the best picture...

I'll be getting mine done Monday at around 32%, which is what's legal in my state. I've had it before and it's plenty dark enough for me.

It’s the 3” rough country lift with 315/70/r17 tires.

20% is going to match the back almost perfectly but it is a little hard sometimes at night, I have to roll the windows down to use the side mirrors to see a curb when parking. If you are going to tint the sunroof, go with 20%, less is still going to be bright with direct sunlight and let a lot of heat in.

thanks for this! Definitely going with 20 for the front 2 windows. I think I’ll leave the pano moonroof untouched, least it’ll look a bit brighter to the fronts from the sun, to avoid getting pulled over for front window tint lol.
