Hi All,
I was wondering for those of you that have tinted your E-60, did you go with the Solar Guard tint or with an alternative tinting product? I've scheduled an appointment to get my car tinted but I'm not sure of which product to with. Any answer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've had my 3M for just under 1 year and couldn't be happier with it.

Johnson Window Films makes a great product. Find somebody good to apply it. That's where you'll notice the difference.

Almost forgot...don't use an ammonia-based widow cleaner, i.e. Windex. Unless you like purple.
