On a crisp January morning in the shade - used father's camera (Cannon), not photoshoped. 35% all around from the dealer.

I just noticed that I have blacked out trim all around
Nice pic!! I like your pic of your engine too from the other thread!! Very nice photography, you wouldn't happen to be a photographer would you?

Guys,

Isnt Dyed tint bad and its only good for couple months? Read here: http://www.tintcenter.com/articles/bt_durability.html

Whats the best tint to get now-a-days? I have 2006 525i w/ Silver Gray (A08), so thinking about getting 35% all around dyed charcoal like the NeRwEEzy tint for his Silvergray E60. Thanks

a member here referred me to the place where i went and he has the same tint on his car and his looks awesome (not sure when he got it done though). the dyed tint that fades to that purplish color is the gray dyed. thats why i went with the charcoal dyed. and even if that might happen i have a 5 year warranty so im not really worrying about it. it was said in other threads that the kind of tint not to get is metallic tints. im not really a tint expert or anything though so if anyone else can help please do.

Seriously... SEXYY!!! When you refer all-around? that means except the Windsheild rest all of the windows right. Did they tint the silver lining around the side windows? May be I should look into that for silver gray too
