35% tint all around

definitely worth spending the extra for the 535 if you can, if you buy the 528 you will just spend the time wishing you spent for the 535, plus the 535 is very tuneable.

My Ride: 2008 528i: Alpine White/Creme Dakota Leather/Bamboo Anthracite Wood Trim; Premium pkg, Ipod USB (6FL), Xenons, sunroof, Eibach pro-kit 1.2" drop all around, limo tint all around. LED license plate festoons.
Soon to come: M6 replica 19" rims, Angel Eyes mod, fog light mod.
if there is one thing you can learn from my 55thousand dollar tragedy is to spend the extra 5Gs and get the TT. HANDS DOWN GET THE 535!!!

but i also look at the weight, 535XI got turbo in the front, make more weight in the front, how will that affect handling? is it loud for turbo?
do i need to install turbo timer?
