It will look very good. Trust me.

I have a lava grey but you can go to my gallery and I have a shot of my rear with 20% tint. The two colors aren't that different to visualize.

Cheers!

 

thanks chef - that helps.Any suggestions on finding a reputableshop to have it doneat? I'm in MN and put a post in theAudi/Midwest threadasking the same question butno one responded.

 

I've got a great spot if you feel like a drive to SoCal, otherwise I'm not of any use. But, we will be having a GTG at the end of the month and it's a good time. Might drive those snow blues away?

Good luck!

 

I've scheduled an appointment this weekend to have the windows tinted and front end fitted with a Formula One Auto bra. Going to go with a ceramic 40% all the way around (max legal in NC is 35% and the black interior is going to make it seem more like 35). The cheaper places offered titanium/hybrid, but I've heard a few people say with that stuff I'd have to go lowest grade or highest grade. Since I'd go high grade anyway, I'm sticking with ceramic and not chance things with the AM/FM antenna in the rear glass. Might tint the Open Sky too...probably 20-35%.

 

Hi. Going out to mainly the Mid-Atlantic A3/Audi owners. I'm looking at getting my windows done this spring. And I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations. I am especially interested in whatever anyone has to say about EIP's window tinting service - they look really interesting. Hey - Baltimore shout out....

 

Hey L7, check out the TintDude forums. You can get tips on shops in your area. The most important criteria for a shop is how long they have been in business and what their work actually looks like (in other words, go visit the shop and see their work in person)

 

Just got back from the all-day affair of having Formula One installed - Pinnacle ceramic 40% on sides and back, Pinnacle ceramic 15% for the Open Sky panels and clear auto bra. I'd always heard good things about Formula One...I hope it was worth it, and so far it does look very nice.

Waiting til spring is a good idea, as the fluctuating temperatures and wet weather in my area (NC) mean it's going to take some additional time for everything to cure and set properly.
