On silver cars I really like the smoke look for window tint. The company that I love and have used on my last three cars is Madico. They have a film called Onyx that looks just like the factory tint on the backs of mini-vans, SUVs and pick-ups. Also, it does not degrade cell phone or radar warning receiver performances (if you lived somewhere where those were legal).

There was a place in Richmond (Concours something-or-other) that did one of my cars and they did a terrific job. Here is the tint mfg website: http://www.madico.com

I'd post pics of my ride with it, but I just moved and all my crap is in a pile in a hotel room right now. I'll see if I can find any I have online...

EDIT: found one -- this is Madico Onyx film, 20% all the way around.

Going to agree with BMW style smoke tint, 35% all around. Go look at some factory newer BMWs to give yourself an idea.
