What tint should I get for my 2002 Sentra?

I'm getting my Sentra tinted this weekend and I need to know how dark/light to get it. Please be as specific as you can because I am indeed a noob as I'm sure you know. If you could tell me the shade for each of the 6 windows I would be extremely grateful. Also do the back door and front door windows usually get the same tint? And is the windshield even tinted at all? Here's my car:

My car has limo in the back and the darkest you can legally get in the front. Whether or not the front and the back are the same depends on how dark you go. Visibility at night can be a little diffucult for me, but as long as you pay more attention you should be okay. It justs depends on how much you want to spend really

Does the 20% include the rear window too? And is that how much it is tinted or how much light goes through or what?

EDIT: One more thing: how much is the price difference between light and dark?

I am pretty sure it has to do with how much light comes through.

yea 20 % all rear..

and the price is darker more expensive.

20 % means that only 20 % of light gets through etc.

i think thats what i got, i was going to get the darkest i could but the guy at the tint told me it wouldnt look that good and for my black car it would look classier and he was right it does look classier and flows more with my car atleast, but it all depends on what you want...

If I read the law correctly, then I think that the darkest I can get in Washington state is 35%. (Could someone please check and make sure I read that right.) So should I go with 35% all around?

A friend of mine has 35% on his truck, and it's not just real dark. Mine has 5% on the back window (over the ~75% stock) and my back sides have 6% over the ~35% stock, then I have 13% on my door windows. Can't see nothing inside, except a little in the windshield, but it's so dark inside you still can't see a lot.

I live in NY and technically your not supposed ot have any tint on the front windows but i ahve 35% on the front and 15% on all the other windows. The front isn't dark enough for anyone to bother me and you can barely tell its tinted at night and the back i made dark so people couldn't see my stereo cause i have a truck. it depends on what you want, if you just want a light tint than 35-30% is good. If you want it dark 20% and lower is gonna be a noticeable difference in light.
