New Window Tint

Just got my windows tinted 35% on my black cls63 (my first mod!). Surprisingly, it altered the look of the car significantly...beautiful. It's as if it makes the car looks lower as it better connects the lines of the roof to those of the doors. This is something I couldn't tell by looking at pictures. Definitely a must for a black cls63. I'll post some pics later.

Pls some shots. Do you have beige interior? Am having the same quandary. Reason being that i don't want to compromise the beautiful beige interior by tinting it. I like the fact that you can see through the car from outside. Am slightly biased TBH

Was rainy all weekend. I took this shot at the end of the day...lots of reflection but you can see how the trunk and the roof connect together and how much light gets through the side windows...not opaque, just a shade. I'll try to get better shots under full sun later this week.

Looks great but if your really looking for that streamlined, connected look I would wrap off or paint the window plastic ...I mean chrome black.

BTW - If you have kids tell them that people can't see in and watch what happens...
