Deutsch, did you get a look at the film before the tint, to see if it matches in color to the factory tint? I have the privacy and originally thought about getting the fronts only done. But when I held up a sample against the front window and stepped back to compare, there was a noticeable difference in color between front and back.

I guess if one did them all it would meld together anyway.

Thanks A LOT!!

I purposely kept the 2 front windows lighter, to help prevent getting a ticket for tinted front windows (illegal in CA). With the tinting on the rear with the privacy glass, they just look a bit darker that w/o tint. I actually like the way it looks with the 2 front lighter and the rest darker.

I am going to try and find a V-Kool dealer about getting the front windshield clear tinted. That glass is murder on hot days!!!

Huper will not interfere with HUD. My parents had it installed on their front windshield for their X5 with HUD and everything works fine. I'm considering doing it to mine too. Have Huper all around except the windshield. Not really sure if the heat rejection really works that well (compared to other tints). Maybe the windshield will be the deciding factor. Not hot enough here to test it out my my parents X yet.

$250-$350 seems quite reasonable, and as we can all agree, makes the car look really nice. I saw someone post that tinting is offered to the European market. I can say that it was definitely not an offer when I bought the car. The sales guy said he could put me in contact with some people, but that the dealership did not do that kind of work. Anyways, your cars look great. Enjoy your X5s.

Cheers,
