Looks fantastic! This seals it, I'm going with 30% (Formula One Pinnacle). My other option was 15%, but the 35% looks great on yours.

I like it alot. I've spent ~8 years driving a vehicle with 20% tint though and it's taking me some time to get used to ~33% visible light transmission. I don't have the same feeling of privacy when driving down the road, etc.
The tint itself is superb. It's definitely a superior product to anything I've had in terms of heat rejection, night time driving is excellent and far better than the 20% I've driven, and tint clarity is outstanding - there are no visual effects when looking through the windows that I've noticed so far. No distortions, color shift, etc....whether straight on or looking at an angle. I think ideally, FOR ME, this tint would have like 28% visible light transmission. Just a smidge darker. But then I might have negatively impacted night time driving, so I'm not sure. Right now, for the first time in 8 years, I can back down my driveway at night using my side view mirrors to line up my driving line with the edge of the driveway without rolling down my window. That's a HUGE difference.

My M4 is sapphire black with senoma beige interior and black rims. Would I be better off getting 35% on the front and passenger side with 15% all around aside from front windshield? or just do 35% all around aside from front windshield so its consistent? I am going with pinnacle formula one just cant decide which looks better.

Fading should only be possible with dyed films. Suntek CXP is not a dyed film (according to their marketing).
