I personally do not like tint, you know how we love the bright sun out here and I hate the feeling of driving in a dark box/dungeon.
That said, Desert reflections are VERY good and have used them many times as a service manager at multiple dealerships.

Thank you for the response, I appreciate the reference for Dessert reflections. I am not looking for a dark tint, my understanding is that all 10th generation Si come already with a 70% tint from factory so maybe that might be good enough. I talked to Dessert refections today and they recommended 18% all around, I think that will definitely turn my car into a dark box/dungeon, I might consider 30-35% all around.

It will look like crap but the best thing to do is get a few test pieces and stick them to your drivers window to try it out. My coworkers here at HP say that 15% is not dark enough and they regret not trying it out first.
