I prolli will be goin with 35% Ceramic tints cuz as Tommy said earlier, I wudnt want to risk possible interference of the nav or satellite radio signals that might happen if i did Metallic... and now I would know what is considered a good deal n what's a rip-off

it might be subjective, but do u guys think it will be harder to resell a car with tinted windows? i mean, would it affect the resale value negatively or at all? thanx.

Hardly a deal breaker, unless it's super dark. Most people want tinted windows as it is. Especially where it's hot.

And provided it's not something like mirror tint, it adds a nice touch to the car.

I'm in the process of getting tint (put it off for way too long). If I get metallic and it causes CA to not work 100% all the time as it does now oh well. I'm not paying $400 for F1, which is the cheapest I can find.

jngjng72 · 01-21-2008, 10:59 AM

dealer wanted $495, and then he knocked it down to $240, same price as the tinting place I usually go to.

Danny - give me a call. I can set this up for you.

E90RWC · 02-19-2008, 01:18 PM

$240 for 5% Madico tint all around.

Tommy420 · 02-19-2008, 02:03 PM

I paid $230 for my tints, which are Madico ceramic tints. One thing to note, if you already don't know...if your car has Comfort Access, or if you have navigation, I'd suggest going for a ceramic tint instead of a metallic tint. This is because the metallic tint may interfere with the GPS signal and the CA.

$200 for ceramic tint all around except front windshield

+1. I had the dealer put on the tint. Just hold out on saying "yes" to the final deal. Then at the last minute, have them throw in tint for free. Previously, I paid $350 for Huper ceramic on my M. I know about all the possible interferences with non-ceramic, but i figured it would save me the hassle of getting tint. If it does interfere with anything, then I'll go get ceramic. I'll just try the dealer tint for free.

I got all 5 windows for $190 Ceramic Tint

Payroll · 02-19-2008, 03:09 PM

I was quoted the following for my e92:

Dyed tint: $150
High performance (part metallic): $200
Ceramic (Huper Optik): $350

I went with the Huper Optik and I am very satisfied.

IMO, tints always make the car look better.

etmathews · 02-20-2008, 01:28 AM
