I finally got into see my tint guy a few days ago. I highly recomend "The Tint Pros" in Huntington Beach, they are great. I went with Formula One "Classic" 35% on all side windows and 20% on the rear window. All I can say is boy does it change the character of the car, much more aggressive and stealthy. I have some rear reflectors as well as an interior xenon light kit on order, let the mods begin! (The last picture looks like there is bubbles in the rear passenger window, there is not any)

Very sporty. Tint was the first thing I did on my car also. Be careful of the mod bug. Once bitten the only cure is for more mods...

Hahahaha... Isn't that the truth. No cure in sight for me...

ECF,
b/c of you I'm holding out another month and wait to see if Dinan pulls through with their software for the ECU. Well, another reason for waiting a month is ummm... wallet is kinda light these days from paying IRS, VA state (worked in VA last year), CA property tax, credit card, etc...

2005530i,
Good brand you went with there for your tint.
