Default Window Tint - Hüper Optik

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the "high end" Hüper Optik window tint.

I'd love to know how it compares with the standard ("$200 tint any car") type of film.

Please share.

I meant to also mention that there is a sticky located near the top of the main page.
A lot of information there.
Here's an additional link, more so for tint levels.

My car has Huper Optik 35% tint.

Bear in mind if your LS has dual panel windows in the front the front and rear windows have different color tint from the factory. The more metallic nature of Huper film makes this pretty noticeable, especially in the more reflective 35 and 45 ESC films.

When I was living in California and driving BMWs, this was by far the best option I have ever seen and experienced. I loved it so much that I used it on 5 of my 7 cars while I was there (the other 2 were before I found out about them). The comparison between 3M "high end" full dark and optik is day and night - the car would not get anywhere near as hot as a fully slammed and front-covered car using traditional tint. If you care about heat more than privacy and looks, this is the tint for you. Be careful though, you need to go through a special authorized dealer/shop otherwise you have no warranty. Pricy but well worth it.
