I don't know a good place, but I'll tell you a place not to get it done...Terrific Tint in Laguna Niguel area close to Roger Dunn Golf Shop. I went there for my E46, looks good at first, then a year into it the tint starts to peel. If you want to find out some good places, I know a lot of posts have been made on E46fanatics.com for this, so you might want to check that forum out.
Good luck, post pics after

Ask for Theresa in parts at Crevier BMW, then ask for the number to Kenny the tint guy, he does all the tints for Crevier BMW in Santa Ana, CA. He's about two blocks away fom the dealer. he cahrges about $230, all five window, plus he'll put on different sample tint for you viewing pleasure if you are not sure what looks good. Good Luck, got my e46 tinted there, e60 next, when I get some time.

Califronia Tint is Rosemead does good work, but they don't have the tint used for BMWs and there integrated antenna. remember, always bargain and pay cash, you always get a better deal with cash... IRS

Like I said, always bargain, however...he does do a very clean job. And he primarily works with BMWs and MBs with the intergrated antenna. I'm sure there are places that will do it for a lower cost, just be patient and keep looking. It's just the place I used and trust. Good Luck
