Window Tint Advice

I'm looking to get my windows tinted on my zetec s, but I'm stuck between what shade, either limo black or medium, the company doing the tints recommend medium however I've seen other zetec s' around with what looks like darker than I imagined medium would be.

If anyone has their windows tinted would you be able to post a photo with what shade it is to help me decide.

    B pillar back you can have whatever, I would check the front side windows as there is a legal limit on those, I would suggest Limo black for B pillar back and then up to the legal limit on the front. I found that when I had tinting done on another of my cars that the tinted rear window is really good at night as you don't get the glare from cars behind you at night.

    My MK7 zetec s has 20% tints on the rear. They looked nearly black and suited the black car well

    I'd have medium on the sides, and darker on the back. (Not limo black dark though)
