Go to Thornhill Tints. That's where Autohaus, Maranello, Town & Country and Serpa sends their cars. When I went, I saw two pre-delivery F30s being tinted at the same time. The guy only charges $250 cash.

Thanks everyone.

1) maz3335 - I called BMW Missisauga twice and could not reach Lee.

2) Thanks gamechanger, will check it out

3) Thanks Aritaurus, will check it out.

I am debating if i should just go with 35 all round, 30 all around or 35/30 front with 25/20 rear for an AW 328.

I would suggest that you do all around with a % of your choice vs front & back being different.

Is a personal taste but when I see a car with lighter tint at the front and a darker tinit at the rear it looks off and goofy.

Thanks

I can see that. At this point, I may go with 35% or 30% all around (not including front windshield). What color is your car? Do you have any pics?



Does anyone know what tint shop does BMW Toronto use?

Hope it's not too late but I'd highly recommend Auto Links with the Pinnacle tint. They did a great job and got good recommendation on the tint % as well.
