I just picked up my Silver Grey/Black M5 on Saturday 3/18/2006 and was wondering what percentage tints would look good with Silver Grey? Any Silver Grey E60 with tints? Pics would be nice

I've got 35% all the way around on mine, minus the windshield of course. I'll take some pics and post them tomorrow.

and its personal preference. I do admit its a little darker than I wanted but the next step up I was afraid it would be lighter than I liked. I dont care what they say but tints do fade a little over time and I've noticed its a tiny bit lighter already after a year so in about a year it would be perfect!

P.S. this was taken in a gloomy rainly day so it looks darker than usual.

Actual film is 40% but it measures 30% when applied. This is the legal limit where I live.
Depending on the angle, daylight, etc., it takes on different properties obviously.

As promised. 35% all around, sorry about the glare in a few of them.
