Prices vary from $200 to $400 for all windows, depends on where you live and how good a rep the tinter has. I paid $240
% is a personal preference thing, but I like 35% on cars other than black, white & silver, this is so the tint accents the color instead of visa versa. |

Cost - $200. Probably not THE BEST film, but I liked. Tint shop was recommended by my salesperson. Tint and mud flaps is only two mod that I did to my car.

I'm in the western New York State area and we don't see the sun. I'm not going to tint my E92 coupe when it arrives just in case it does appear. I wouldn't want to miss it.

its something like 28% here in florida (the lower the number the darker the tint) so if it was me i would get the 20% because if a cops going to ticket you w/ 50% being the legal hes probably going to do it regardless if you have 20 or 35%
