I didn't want to tint it because
1. I didn't want anyone messing with the windows, spraying stuff on the doors, the seats, the screens by accident.
2. Didn't want any potential rattles with parts of the door taken off or peeled back.
3. Feel like the interior is special and needs to be seen to be appreciated (carbon buckets).
4. Maybe I'm just getting older but I feel like tint really isn't my thing any more. It kind of cheapens the car. Maybe it's because all of my previous cars were tinted and substantially less expensive. Like you hardly see a GT3/GT4 or really any high end car with tint these days.
I'll tint my DD but I think the G87 stays fishbowl.
I kind of agree with this. I’m starting to feel the same way. If I do go forward with tinting it won’t be below 50% or so and it will be primarily for heat rejection.

That’s the reasoning for my 55%.

XPEL 45%

I just had it done today. Normally I do 35%, thankfully I did 45% as it's dark enough for me!
