Tint
Hi just purchased brand new m3 coupe that is jetblack. Looking to tint the windows so was wondering if there were any good locations near Corona?

Yeah, definitely get Huper Optik if you dont want to use your comfort access and have no interest in AM radio. Ceramic tint DOES block the signal. Instead, get Suntek Carbon and you'll have no problem.

50% is too light. Go with 30%.
You'll still have good visibility and privacy without looking ghetto.

Got it done under a Group Buy. Paid only $650 for 6 windows on a 4 door sedan (E90). Yes, including the front windshield.

Suntek Carbon tint and Llumar ATX will not interupt any of these thing at all. Many people who comment are the same folks who installed their tint the first day of ownership and have no idea of the difference. If you decide to still go with ceramic, do a test. Measure how far your key remote works from before install and then check it afterwards. Also, good luck getting it to work from behind the car where the signal actually has to pass through the back window. Ceramic or metallic is not worth the headache.

weird... isn't CA located outside on the handle?
Thus it shouldn't be affected by the tint? I have 3M Ceramic with no problems with AM, CA, or unlock/locking Same thing is on the Z4
