I had my G8 GT tinted today, along with the front end Clearmask installed. For the tint I went with 3M 20% in the rears, and 70% up front. The front may not be 3M as they do not offer a 70% film. In any event, it matches and looks perfect. Out here in California, the fronts should have zero tint, however 70% gives you just a bit of darkness, along with the UV protection. I think it looks a lot better than just having dark rear windows and nothing on the fronts.
For the Clearmask from Xpel, I had the Bumper, front of hood, scoops, mirrors, front of fenders, the headlights, and foglights protected. It's not cheap, but it looks alright. You can see it if you're looking for it, but in casual passing you wouldn't notice it much. It has a 7 year warranty against defect, peeling, or discoloring.
Now I wait for my 20" Matte Grey Breytons to get here, and the Magnaflow exhaust. :)
