getting tints on 27th, need suggestions on type of tint

Hi guys,

I'm scheduled to get my tints done by Vince next Monday. He told me he uses either metallic tint or this other one that he recommends. The metallic is cheaper but i've heard issues of messing with your AM frequencies, nav, etc. Has anyone used the metallic tint and had no trouble so far? He told me the metallic will be 260 and the other (i don't remember the name) is 360 so its just a hundred dollar difference. Which one should i go with?

Also, i'm thinking about doing 35% in the back and then 50% on the passenger/driver side. Anyone have any pics of it? I've been looking but haven't found anyone with LP. I'm still considering 35's all around as well.

Let me hear your suggestions!
