Tint % advice for tan interior

[KSUCATZ]

*New to the forum.

Giddy with excitement that my 2027 Performance is due to arrive tomorrow to the dealership. The spec is white with a tan interior (manual) - I view it as more grand touring car than sports car. I do think the black/white tuxedo look with dark tint is sharp on a black interior but with tan I’m going for more of a luxury aesthetic - thus, considering lighter levels (even fishbowl/clear).

Seeking input on ceramic tint percent - sides and back (could be different or the same). I’ve learned that the lower the %, the darker. Dealer suggests 20% rear and 35% for the sides.

please consider my intent and advise accordingly. Thanks!

I know nothing about tint percentages but I am very fond of the new tan interior from what I've seen.

Please post photos of that interior after you get your car. Congratulations!

Thanks. I’m hoping it looks as good as the pics after the effort to locate that color combo

I'm a big fan of matching sides & back to keep a uniform look. 30% ceramic (Llumar IRX is what I have on our 3 vehicles) is where I find the sweet spot to be for heat rejection without over darkening and making night visibility difficult. Also look into a clear ceramic film on the windshield to cut UV, IR, & heat; I personally use Llumar AIR80.

My advice: Use a professional tint shop rather than the dealership for better quality installation and more choice in films. Most films the mobile installers that dealerships use are subpar (not all ceramics are created equal).

Thanks for your reply and the pics are helpful. I like the idea of uniform; finding balance somewhere in between 20%-35%.
Your Z looks great btw

20% sides and rear with 55% full windshield for the win
