How's is it looking out the sides from the inside, okay I guess?

During the day it's not hard, but at night I have to roll it down for parking and things like that. I am still able to see people next to me so that I don't turn lanes and hit them though. And yeah it's most definitely illegal since the legal allowance is 70% in CA. It's not as bad as people assume though. I know a few people with limo all around who haven't been pulled over once in 2 or 3 years, so I'll just have to be cautious.

The back rear needs to be twice as dark as the sides if you want it to match. The side windows have the handicap of a 2nd tinted window on the other side of them, whereas the very rear window has a perfectly clear windshield on the opposite side of it.
You will need to go with 35%-20% to match the factory rear windows. It's your call on how dark you want to go, because the factory is in the middle of those 2 shades. Most people seem to find 20% a closer match, but if you want to be on the safe side, go with the lighter 35%.
