I prefer factory dark tint on the rear windows only. I tend to leave my front ones alone. I think it looks bettter. When I see the dark stuff around here it is some hoodlum or low rider and it grates my nervesss.
All 3 of our cars have every window tinted except the windshield. The Montero has 20% tint. The Integra has a mix of metallic and dye of 20% tint. The Accord has full metallic tint of 19% tint.
I really like the Accord's 100% metallic tint, but after one month, my wife got a ticket for the front windows being tinted. I think I might have to pay the $77 fine or find someone who can sign it off and just pay $10 with the proof-of-correction. The metallic tint gives it a mirror effect at certain angles and light.

I've got a 20% tint all around on my car. When I see white Integra sedans without tint they look funny to me. My tint looks darker though because I have a black interior too. I've never been pulled over for it but I'm sure that someday some anal cop is going to hunt me down. It looks extra dark because the car is white too. When I have my windshield shade up you can't even see into the car. You may be able to see a little but because it is all black inside you can't really make out any detail.

I've had my Camaro tinted for a few years now and love it! I love the look, privacy, and the cooler interior on hot summer days. I'll have all my future cars tinted for those reasons.
