The place I went to has rectangle shaped glasses with various % tint to give the customer an idea. The workers there also had their cars tinted andwilling to show to customers if they want to see.

I found a weird website that shows you pictures of cars and tells you what percentage the windows are tinted...

this one is 20% back, 35% front

This one is 35% all around

I think I like the 20% 35% better....but maybe the 35% all around doesn't do justice because it is on a red car

Depends on the shop and what type of tint is used. I just use the generic tint and it costs $140 for sedans and $130 for coupes with life timewarranty. A lot of folks go for the 3M and ceramic tint which can cause up to $500.
