Just got my S5 tinted yesterday...attached a few pics. 20% in the back, 50% in the front, with smoked tail lights. Please post some pics of your tinted A5/S5!

Nicely done and rounds out the black with Ti package looks. I'm still considering whether or not to tint my S5, though I probably won't go as far as darkening the tail lights (I don't think it really works with Sprint Blue).

I will have to get some pictures when the weather turns a little bit nicer here and I can wash it. I had mine tinted about a week ago. 5% on the back and side back windows and 25% on the front windows... Back up camera comes in handy at night.

Rear lights look perfect. Not too dark. What was the process?

Looks great!! Do you have the spec's on the wheels? Mainly the offset. The A5/S5 Titanium wheels looks like they are more concave than the A4/S4 ones.

The tails have a product on them from Oracal on them in a "med" tint.

Is the product a film over the stock lights? If so, any issues with bubbling? I'm looking into getting it done, and heard that painting was best, but I don't want anything permanent so I'm looking into film.
