Window Tint Match Problem

Sorry if this has been covered before, i looked before posting. I have a 2011 GL350 and had my fronts tinted. They match as far as transparency when looking out but the hue is just so different. I went back to my installer and he absolutely insists that it is simply due to the fact that the factory front windows have a different hue in the glass. I'm just not buying it.

It's almost like the fronts have a metallic look to the with the tint on and the back are a much deeper black. Transparency used was something like 20%

has anyone acheived a match? what did you use?
