My car is black and it's about to get hot. Just sides and rear, no windshield. I suspect it's more about the installer than the product....Also, had anyone seen a 212 with bronze tint? Thus would be like the factory bronze tint that BMW used to offer...in any event, thanks for the suggestions....

Bronze tint...now that's interesting. Personally, I would like window tint to be that color when looking out from the inside, but I'm not so sure about the appearance in the other direction. Yellow/brown/bronze tint is an ideal tint color because it provides a higher contrast for our eyes especially in low light condition. I wonder why tint makers don't offer that. Oh well, I'll just stick with my sunglasses of that color for now. I'd love to see some pictures, too.

I went with Suntek CXP tint. Very happy with it. I didn't want the tint to be too dark so went with 45% on all windows except windshield. You should be good to go with any quality ceramic tint. The installer does play a big part in it.

Oh, I just noticed you live in GA too. I can get you the e-mail or number to my installer if you live close to Alpharetta.
