Default What Percent Tints should I get?

I want to get only the back half of my Silver 2006 Honda Civic Coupe tinted, but I don't know what percentage to get. Which percent would be the best, that would match the rest of the car?

Well I live in New Jersey, where I can get any percent tints on the back half but no tints on any of the windows on the front half. I was thinking 20%, but I think that is going to look weird on a silver car that is not going to have the front half tinted. Does anyone have any pictures of a civic tinted only on the back half?
