Beautiful. I have owned several very nice Porsche's but only one new...a 1976 914 2.0. It must be a blast to take delivery of a 991 you ordered precisely to your specs.

Yes - I had sides and rear glass tinted to the Porsche Cayenne tint (30%). Also had an essentially clear ceramic tint put on the windshield...blocks UVA and B, and keeps 50% of heat out.
Didn't want too dark of a tint, might look too "gangsta" for me

Had a new Cayenne GTS in 2008, but that just wasn't the same emotionally!

When my car finally arrives, Im looking to get 50% tint all the way around. My car is black like yours.

The tint did not scratch from the inside from the windows being rolled down??? Just want to confirm the inside seals have felt.

Actually have not rolled these down yet, dealer said to give it 5 days - just picked up the car on Wednesday. Previous tints on Benz E350, Cayenne GTS, and 997.1 did not scratch.

Personally I think 50% is a bit dark. Next time you are at a dealer, take a look at the new Cayennes. They have 30% on the rear passenger and rear hatch windows. On my new car, I have found that it provides plenty of privacy, given that there is a little reflectiveness to it. Makes it difficult to see in without it just looking BLACK. For me it looks a little more elegant with the 30% tint...same reason I decided not to get the wheels powder coated black.
That said, fully blacked out can look very cool, just not the look I was going for. Another thing I liked about getting the black car is that the air intakes on the car are all black, and I didn't like the contrast versus some of the other paint colors.

I think you have your terms confused. "50% tint" allows 50% of light to transmit through while "30% tint" only allows 30% of light through. Consequently, 30% appears darker. Good luck with the new C4S!
