Aww Liggy. You don't look a day over 20.

 

lol... in dog years, perhaps! That's sweet of you to say though.

 

i had the same issue, what worked for me was doing 50% up front and 35% in the back on a audi S5 silver. looks great give some added privacy, heats reduction, and almost no change for night driving. ill post a picture when i have a change tomorrow

 

S5 pics are always appreciated. I love the looks of them.

 

I had 35% on my last 3 cars. What I find is that if your interior is light, the 35% looks too light. So now on my latest car with a light interior I went 20% and it looks like 35% on a dark interior car. I also find no difference in seeing out of 20% vs 35% at night.

 

I have 20% all around. Might get my front windshield tinted too. 35% or 50%

 

I used to be one of those anti-tint type but I started to fall in love with tint when my Cayenne came with the limo tint. I have no problem at night time except the rear view in rainy days.

I would definitely do 35% tint next time when I replace my daily beater bmw.

 

Yeah, I'm a big fan of the tint look. No issues seeing at night even with 20% all around. The one thing with metallic tint is that it can interfere with your rear radar detector effectiveness.

 

I've done 35% on all of my last few cars and wouldn't have it any other way. The car looks much nicer from the outside, but from the inside it really isn't much different. I don't think many people would ever think 35% was too dark. If anything is isn't dark enough.

 

thanks everyone for your input. in case you're curious, i've decided to go with 35% tint. scheduled to go on next weekend at accutint in bellevue. i'm excited to see how the car will look with darkened windows.

 

You will love the privacy (instead of bare presentation of the interior from outside) and the UV protection from the sun.

Post some pictures after you got it.

 

35 is too light. I would get 20.

 

I would get 20 also, especially on a white car. Just my opinion.

 

Is it possible to get a 50% tint or is 35% the lightest? I'd like a bit of anonymity, but I don't want to make my view from inside any darker.

Are the reflecting films any good? I've only seen really gross ones on beater hondas, but I think a tiny bit of reflection might do the trick.

 

accutint does offer 50% i believe. you could go down to one of their shops and look at their varying tints on different customer cars to pick what you like best.
