Does tinting void warrantly ?

I am planning to have 20% tinting on all windows done by a local shop. Will this void my warranty ?

No

BMW Dealers here offer tinting service

Though they just send it to a approved fitment centre where you could go yourself and have it done cheaper.

No I don't think so. Try getting a non-metalic tint, as the metalic tint might affect the antenna's in the rear window!

Usually not but some dealers will blame faulty window problems on the fact that the tinter had to take a apart the door. Most tinters now a days can do tints without taking off the door, in addition BMW has to PROVE that it was the tint that caused the issue.
