15% all windows except 30% on the windshield. No tint on the pano roof.

I am in California too BTW, so I understand your concern. Only ticket I have ever recieved was really to let me out of a speeding ticket. They want to write you for something, so they get you for a front license plate or in this case, tint. It was in my Audi (same tints as the Taycan) and I just paid the $185 fee and left the tint on the car.
30% on the windshield! That seems so dark!
Good info on what happens when you get stopped. And outcome.
Thank you.
This will be the first car I will keep front plate off of.

Spacers - I am not that garage guy. Do tire shops do it? Who does it?

And... I failed to tell you how sweet your car is! Black is our jam but I went white coz, it was what was for sale used, with ~ features I wanted.

Man that looks good! I have the same 21 inch wheels on my 25 CT4 in gloss black/machine. My car is valcano gray and want to change them to your color but can’t find the right powder coat color. Might go satin black to play it safe.

I had 50% on my last car and you could barely tell it was tinted. 30% is a good balance between blocking out a lot of light and still keeping visibility (especially at night) really good. If you want to block UV and keep the car cool, 70% on the windshield is almost un-detectable.

the spacers and lowering links I did myself, but any decent shop can do it for you.

Mine are Satin Black from the factory, so I would go Satin if you want that look.
