Just got my 335 last month and I was sold on Huper Optik until I started reading about all kinds of people having issues with Comfort Access. The guy that tinted my E46 (Llumar metallic) says he pretty much only works with 3M Crystalline or SolarGard Ultra Performance now.

I'm looking primarily for heat rejection (and about 40% tint), but I really don't want to sacrifice Comfort Access performance.

Also, can't wait to see pics!
Don't use Metalized tints. Period. I wouldn't listen to a tint shop that tinted an E46 with metal tint. That's wrong as the E46 has a rear window radio antenna.

3M Color Stable or Crystalline are just fine. Will not affect CA or any other systems in car. I have Color Stable for months and all is great.
