possible window tint fix -pic

I did alot of research on the yotatech site before tinting the windows on my 94 4runner. It has the factory bronze tint. My buddy tinted the back doors and rear with 20 percent regular tint, but the problem was making the front doors match. He tried a couple of different tints, and came up with what I have now. I have a pic if it works uploading it. Give me your opinions please on how it looks. Thanks guys

he tried some of his comercial tint he had on hand, we found some to go on the back windows and not use the regular black tint, and it really matched great to the front, but he would have to order it, and it was not cost worthy for me.

I know that the match of the tint bothers some people (like me, I am picky), so i appreciate the responses and just wanted to help out fellow yotatech members also. I could get him to help any others out if they wanted to get a match also. If not, thanks for the opinions anyway

You're not too picky. Too picky is when you replace the rear side windows on your Tacoma with new factory clear glass so you can tint all of the clear glass to your liking. THAT'S too picky!! Or that's what I heard..............

we just used some 20 percent regular tint on the back door and rear windows, and some commercial reflective tint on the doors on the front. I am not sure but can find out exactly what name and all, or get you in touch with him to find out either way. he said he would use my doors as a pattern and cut out pre-cut tint in the commercial, i think he has a surplus to get rid of. either way, let me know
