Tint is green

Hey guys, is there any tint brands out there that give a nice cool grey instead of that green gray once its applied to the green glass that comes with all cars?

It seems like I had this before, but no one seems to carry it any more.

I'd stay away from the tinted tints, go with black or bronze if your car is white or blue but thats a far along the color scheme I would go with tint.

i personally wanted blackish tint so i got premium "normal" tint for about $200 done. i did 35% on all sides and 20% a bit darker on the back windshield (rear view near the trunk) I think this setup is hot so it looks uniform and classy from the sides and a bit darker from the back for more privacy...

If U wanna go real premium for tint you should consider Huper Optik tint, find a dealer near you. they do tint that is blackish as well but with a slight metallic/ceramic glow to it. it's classy not that crap mirror tint stuff if that's what ur thinkin. dont mean to commit treason here but it's the choice tint for BMW enthusiasts. Huper Optik is the classy choice but on a black car the "glow" sticks out, wheras on any other color car especially your Athens Blue - the slight glow complements it!!!! However this $hit is so premium it will run you about double. $400 roughly for ur car. lifetime warranty against scratches/defects, peeling etc.
