Show us your tints! G82 edition
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I’m planning to get 35% tomorrow, but won’t be happy with any amount of lift. |

I am not sure what you are expecting, dot matrix is on the glass, meaning you will see lift and imperfections no matter what. If it bothers you that much, don't tint it.
They can either cut before the dot matrix, or they can overlap it using tint or vinyl. You will see silvering with the overlap or cutting before the matrix. Best bet is to go to a highly rated tinter that is most likely booked out for a long time. |

My tint experience has been horrible. Specially when the tint was done at the dealership by someone they recommended.
- Blatant imperfections at delivery (bubbles, wrinkles, dirty smudges, etc.) - Some of these were massaged to make them go away or look less obvious Other cars that I've had, I've taken to the local Hispanic tint guy with excellent results; almost flawless tint job for much less $$$. I didn't get the brow, so I don't know how bad they would have done that section :/ I know it has nothing to do with OP, and not going into detail, but this BMW purchase experience did not meet expectations.

You're the second person to call that out. The pic was also in a different thread. The worst part... I was so excited to get my car back from the PPF installer that I didn't even notice the Chiron until it was pointed out in the other thread.
