Originally from VA, moved to CA, and now living in GA.
I have a thread on here in the general discussion (i think) "VW to BMW, my experience"
I have had several cars tinted by Pro Tint, they do an outstanding job...but I was really concerned having black interior this time and the heat. So I did some investigating and found G-Force Auto Films. I went and talked to them and talked about tint etc and they recommended the ceramic. I could not be happier! I went with GA legal limit 32%. It is darker than the same tint % from Pro Tint. It keeps the heat out and is darker so looks better. Maybe it is darker because I went from beige interior to black, but looks better regardless.

As long as I live here, I won't get anything but ceramic. Just picked up a Ford Focus ST for my wife and I am going to get ceramic tint from them as well.

If you want to see the tint in person, I am sure we can arrange something so you can see it. Just let me know.

Here is a pic...actually looks darker in person too. You can see my e90 in the background before I sold it.
