I'm going to get the 2 front windows tinted the legal limit in Ma & I was wondering if anyone out there can give me any suggestions on what type of tint film I should use: metallic, or other & which company should I go with #m, llumar, vista window film, huper optic or any other?

I would get the film which most closely matches the rears- if you stay legal it will be a bit lighter(rears are around 30%), but still be in the same category. Llumar makes good films.

I did the same thing. Tinted the front two windows. My recommendation would be to use a ceramic tint. The heat rejection of the ceramic tint really made a difference in the comfort of the vehicle on hot days.

What % of tint did you go Legal limit of 35% or darker?
It sound slike we got the same Q7 specs.

It doesn seem as dark though, because of the panoramic roof letting light in from above.

If I had it to do again, I would have gone darker. 35% is a significantly lighter shade than the rears. Mine is Phantom Black, Cardomom Beige. The ceramic suggestion is a good one.

I got the same color combination, do you have any pics of the Q7 I would like to see how the tins look on your Q7?

You probably just want to make sure you match whatever exists on the back windows, otherwise I think it'd look funny.

I wish I could match the rears but Ma law is the fronts can only go 35% I'd like to go at least 20%.

The question is, how strict are they in MA? Here in GA, it is rare to get pulled for tinting. If you went 30% it would be very close.
