My Ride: 530i sport package - endless possibilities ahead!
I had 18% semi metallic on all windows when i bought the car and i didnt really like it. It was to dark and had a greenish hue that was bothering me. Just this week i had the whole car re-tinted with 35% dual layer tint that blocks 99% UV but still has good visibility from inside and outside. I live in Orange County and cops are suuuper strict on tint here so i decided to stay on the safer side.

sounds like you made up your mind already, but my vote would be for 20%..if I were to do it over again, I'd get 20% instead of 35%...

I got the sides and back done in Germany and they called it light medium and dark so I got medium on the sides, dark in the back and the front got done here in america so that on was 35%. The difference inside the car is wonderful and it really does not change much as far as being able to see is concerned.
