Any idea what % the factory tint is?
I don't believe there's any factory tint, mine came as a fish bowl

Sorry, I just figured that option might not be available in NA. It is in Europe though and referred to as "Sun Protection Glass":

Today I applied Car Guys Premium Tire Shine Spray to the tires and all the plastic trim and weather stripping. It really gives the car a nice finishing touch that was missing from the factory.

Try this stuff out:

Does it affect the auto dimming as some people suggested in the other thread?

I call bullshit on the auto-dimming issue. 20% no issues.

What'd you do
A tie down buckle flew off a semi on the highway and flew under the car. Took out support structures, exhaust system, tranny fluid pan, cracked the lower front bumper

factory front wheels offset are +25mm that make me struggle to find new 18 inches BBS rims. I don't have a plan to go bigger to 19 inches.

Now just install the 3M window film with all other stock.

After removing the ugly cerium from my M340 and blacking out other aspects (details here), I took my baby for a wash.
