Car Update With Installations! Opinions..?
My car with the Matte grills, m3 trunk spiler and 30% tints..
My main concern is the tints.. I personally feel they are not dark enough and i am killing my self that i spent 200 on them and really considering going back later this week to get 20% done because it annoying the hell out of me... Whats do you guy's think..? Installation of my e92 m3 trunk spoiler if you want one pm me. If you guys want the trunk spoiler in the pic pm me. Please let me know what you guys think..

So is 35% lol .. I think legal is like 70%.. I know people getting tickets for 55% so it really does not matter.. But you gotta get on that PBA card and you'll maybe catch some luck a few times... As i hope i will.. = )

I have 20% all around on my black interior e90 and feel it isn't dark enough. I wish I had gone 15 or even 10. My plan is to tint the windshield 60% and see if that makes me happy. You may want to consider doing that.
There are a lot of opinions about windshield tinting, and I've never had more than the strip, but the general consensus is that 60% doesn't effect night-time driving and helps a lot with the general visibility inside the car.

It isn't about being cool. I don't like people being able to see me singing Katy Perry or getting roaddome. Also in the south it keeps the car from getting insanely hot in the summers. The sunshade and sunroof vent can only do so much. Also, it looks cool.

I can see all the way through both side windows. I don't think it's dark enough. It depends on your preference though. I like it dark and like to know I can have privacy. And I also have a newborn that will be in the back so she I want it as dark as I can. I went limo. Of course its illegal but it's my preference. Just like it's someones preference to mod their exhaust and cut cats etc. It's also illegal. Drive someones car that has the percentage you want. Drive it at night too so you can see how it is to see out of the sides.

Your tint is perfect especially when driving, it's the right shade inside. In daylight with the snow reflecting even more light, it makes you want a darker tint but really it's fine.
