I have a 2006 QX56 but Im fairly sure that the tint on the Armada is the same since Nissan is fairly consistent.

Im trying to find out what tint have people put on the front windows to match the rear windows. Im trying to figure out if 20% is the correct tint to use, and then whether or not if the smoke tint is the right match.

I used a 35% smoke tint on my front windows, i think it looks great. The 20% tint will probably look too dark IMO. The color of the truck and interior makes a slight difference when choosing a tint. I know for me the graphite interior makes the tint appear darker then it really is at times. But if your looking to match the tint, then I would guess 20% is what you might look for.

20% is real close. The factory is just a little bit lighter but you really have to look to tell the difference.

So you say 20% smoke tint should match it fairly well?

Match Tint

I walked in to the shop and said match the factory tint. They are the pros, and it looks great. Not sure what the % is. I guess if you do it yourself you'd have to know.

Yea Im looking at doing it myself. Im fairly good with tinting, done my last 5 cars myself. This car looks really easy with only 2 front windows to do.

Yes 20% is what I have and it matches very well.

Since you have done this several times over, any suggested brands of tint? I am planning on having a shop do it, but it is always good to know the better brands and products going in. Thanks!
