Model 3 Window Tints

Anybody just had the sides Front and back tinted and got any pics?
I’m not too bothered about the rear roof tinted plus saves any hassle it if ends up cracking or potentially causes issues with the heating element. Plus it’s mostly tinted anyway.

Can anybody recommend anybody in the Northants/Leicester area (yes I know I can google them but would prefer to go on a recommendation as I know the rear screens are tricky)
Has anybody had the rear screen only half tinted up to the gradient tint that's factory fitted? Obviously a lot cheaper and wondered what it looks like from both outside and inside the car?

Hi staffers, what percentage tint did you go for on the front, rear and back window please? It looks superb!
Love the auto correct 'staffers' rear and rear sides were 15%, i think fronts were 50% from memory.

They do look good! I think the legal limit for the fronts is 70% (of light coming in) so worth keeping an eye on the local bobby taking an interest
Yes aware of this, but thanks for pointing it out for others,
actually doesn't look very dark, but i think the 50% looks better against the rear tints.

Moderator comment - thread merged from "M3 window tinting in the UK?"
Hi all, once I take delivery of my model 3 I would like to get the rear passenger windows and un-tinted area of the back window tinted to match that of OME Roof.
Has anyone had this done in the UK? Can they recommend a high quality installer, ideally In midlands? (I hear it’s one of the harder jobs due to size of rear glass)...

Nottingham based and I used PP Protect, see details in my thread below. They are based near Measham so not too far and have done many Tesla Model 3’s.
Finally Arrived! Subtle Enhancements with pics

I've had mind done all round had the whole rear done rather than stopping it at the factory tint, imho I think the cut line if stopped half way would annoy me too much, worh considering.

M3 Window Tint Shades
Got some pics of my white sr+ and others
Had mine done in Ipswich so not much help for you, but if you find somewhere worth checking to see if they have done before, and if not let them see the car before agreeing, 1 guy said he didn't want to do it.

Thanks all - can someone explain the difference between stopping at OME and full rear? (Apologies, I’ve not actually “touched” an M3 yet!)
also, @Cyclone1 and @Radders - could I ask how much you paid for the tint, roughly? I’d also be interested to know how much the dechrome cost @Cyclone1 (happy to DM if prefer not to publicise?).

I paid £300 for all sides including front sides and full rear screen..
The rear screen is large and runs from just behind the b pillar back down to the boot lid. The top section is factory tinted but is graduated to clear. I got all this tinted. I did not tint the front seats roof window which is already tinted.
See attached image and you cant tell any difference (sorry just started raining)
Inside the front roof window and back screen are separated at the joint with some internal trim.

It looks amazing!
Which shades did you go for the back window, roof, back sides and front windows?
I am getting mine done next week with 3M at 25% for the back window, roof and back sides only but seeing yours, I am thinking if I should do the front windows too!
