Default First Time Tinting My Windows. Need advice please.

Live in the Hollywood area and looking to get my Z tinted. Any suggestions on where to go to get a good deal? Only want Llumar or 3M tint.

Also, looking for suggestions on how dark of a tint I should get. The exterior is black. From reading the boards, I learned that the lower the percentage, the darker the tint. Do most people tint the front window? Saw a lot of people who did like 20% or 30% around the whole car. Others did 20% on the side and back and nothing on front.

What LOOKS the best??

Thanks in advance!

To give you an idea, I have 37% all around.
I highly recommend tint.
Not only looks much better, but keeps out a considerable amount of heat and UV rays off the interior
