Tint looks terrible on a 4 door sedan. Makes your car look like you are part of a car service fleet.
Umm..... what?! So tint is fine on a coupe, but not a sedan? Are you serious? I think 35% tint on any car especially when it is done on all sides and rear enhances the look of EVERY car. I seriously have never heard anyone say that "tint looks terrible on a 4 door sedan." That statement simply makes no sense.

My Ride: 2008 550i, Sport Package, Cold Weather Package, Nav, Jet Black, natural brown interior, automatic, Logic 7, ipod, lane departure warning.
The feedback has been terrific. Thank you. Long story short, I'm a 32 year old CPA (grayed early so look older), the 550 w/ SP is an eye turner as is, so when you add the dark tint, I'd hate for passerby's to think that I'm an old "F" trying to hang w/ the younger crowd. I guess its a perception thing.
The car definitely looks better w/ tint, hands down. Will post a pic once I get out of the geriatric ward...
Cheers,
Sergio

I have 50% Tint and really happy with my selection. 50% gives technically good proctection, but don't limit visibility.

$50 in an e60? I'm calling you next time I need a ride then!
I hate riding in the back of those mushy towncars!
