Need Recommendation

Hello all,
I am wondering if anyone has a good recommendation for window tinting in central Florida? I have heard mixed reviews about ceramic tint, so I'll probably steer clear of that, but would like to try something better than regular tint, like llumar.

Katie, ceramic tint is what you want on your car. With Comfort Access, if you put anything else, your electronics will start to mess up. Let me know if you need anything else..... See ya. Eric

i just had ceramic tint put on all windows except for the front windshield of course. no problems what so ever. Blocks heat excellently. The only minor issue i've noticed is that at around dusk time (or whenever the sun is low and brightest) the tint looks a little foggy or hazy. dunno if that is just a poor tint installation or just a bad product. I can't remember the brand name of the tint. But overall I'm very peased with the ceramic tint. The hazy look is not an issue for me. (The hazy look is only from the inside out, not outside in. )

Many People Have had Issues w/Scratched Side Window Tint

The complaint is more common on the sedan (E90). Some people have used a moleskin product to resolve the problem. Here's a couple of threads that discuss it:
