Hi folks,
In less than 12 hours im having my E90 windows professionally tinted throughout.
My E90 is Monaco blue with Lemon leather.
I still want to be able to see the leather from the outside, so don't want limo tints.
Just want a shady smoke throughout.
Any advice on what my fellow E90 drivers would recommend?
Thanks peeps!
(a little short notice I know, I was going to have 35% all through, but just want some opinions to be honest)

The % quoted should be the % of light allowed through, so clear glass would be 100%.

The factory tint on most glass is 70%, which is the legal maximum for the front anyway.

For your rear windows I'd suggest 50% if you still want to see the leather. Much less than that and it could be too dark to see into.

Thanks p/paul, I thought the percentage worked the other way, interesting to know.

Sounds like a good option to be honest.
