trektop nx tint %
Did a search and the general consensus is that 20% front window tint will match the trektop nx.
However, just called bestop and the rep told me it is 31% tint...
Can anyone clarify...please...

just take it to the tint shop and if they are any good tell them you want your window tint to match the softop tint. Thats what I did with mine allbeit I did it with my hardtop.

Well, I'm not going to have my trektop with me. I'm taking my hardtop in there to get it all tinted and I want all of my tints to match (front, trektop, hardtop). Think they would know off the top of their head what % to use?

If i read this correctly you will have the soft top off which means you could bring one of the rear windows with and they could use a light meter, which any reputable tint shop should have, and get an exact reading of the tint percentage.

Haha...yeah, I figured someone would post that. Haven't bought the trektop yet. Trying to get the tint done on my hardtop before I buy the trektop. I guess I could just wait :(

That was my thought as well with the light meter. I would assume that the shades of tint are similar...but then again you know what they say when we assume! It makes and ASS of U and ME!!!
Here is a couple of pics of my jeep with matched tint.
