Tints shouldn't cost no more the $200 IMO

I had window tint on a truck I had for 12 years. The tint had a lifetime Warranty and did not bubble or turn purple. When I get the 135i tinted I will look for the lifetime Warranty tint. You get what you pay for!

crash into a lake and try to brake the window with the tinted windows in front..try and very hard for firefighters to get you out of a crashed car with the tinted windows, when every second counts.. its just stupid to put in the front.. might look cool though.. * hAPPY TIME *

The window punch is designed to work with tinted windows as well. Tinting is not like the safety layer in the front glass of many new automobiles. I'm not sure about you, but I don't plan on crashing into a lake anytime soon.

I've got Ceramic tint and I've got no problems with my CA. I've also noticed it's usually about 10 degrees cooler inside than it was before the tint.

I'm also fairly certain that the jaws of life could cut through the tint if it was ever needed (I sure hope not).

Mirror tint is where it's at.
