I did 35% all around on mine. The C7 interior is so beautiful so I didn't wanna go too dark and hide that.

Also, your recommendations on going 25% all around versus darker on the rear windows.

25% is considered legal here in Texas for the front side windows.

There are some good tint shops around Plano and Frisco. Look for ones with solid reviews and a lifetime warranty on the film. For the shade, 25% all around keeps it uniform and legal, but going darker on the rears can give extra privacy if that’s your preference.
