Window Tints

Hi,

I'm going to get window tints on my new (to me) silver 05 HSE, ( as soon as I've had a belt service Big Cry )

Does anyone have a pic they can post of their silver RRS with tints, if you know what gradient you had done? I don't want to go ott with the darkness and also wondering whether to get a very light front tint done, (keeping in mind the other posts about legality of that...)

Pics and advice appreciated!

I'd find out what the OEM tint is and go for that.
I'm sure someone will post it up. Plenty of pics of Silver with tints, will try and find one Thumbs Up ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Thanks for the pics and link. I think I want to stay away from going too dark, Very Annoyed, can you tell me what gradient the front and rear are in those pictures?
Cheers!
(And no, I won't go to LR, Matford wanted £1100 for a cam belt service... Laughing )

That looks like mine Smile my fronts maybe a bit darker, plod would not be happy, but have been stopped twice and got away with it Whistle

I think they look toss without them tinted Thumbs Up If you took some fog and put it in a jar, would it be missed.
