Looks great. How's the visibility out the windshield at night?

went with 35% in the front and during its totally fine. I think if I had went with 20% for the front windshield it would be a bit of a struggle imo.

I am still hesitating about tinting my windshield. Part of it is an unfounded fear of light dispersion problems at night which will drive me nuts, but probably more important is a concern that oncoming drivers may not be able to see me/my hand gestures when needed - like if we get to an intersection at the same time and are gesturing who should go first.

Btw, I have same car/color with 15% all round except windshield. Last two pics at https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1913758

I usually just handle that by flashing my high beams

visibility in very dark areas might be a bit concerning but I wouldnt say anything risky. For me its fine at night.
