Metalic and black both look nice.

I would not get mine tinted (again - I already did) until there is a reliable fix for the problem with scratching the window. This is a well known problem. I've heard about "moleskins", but have also heard they may or may not eliminate the problem.

I had mine tinted and use the windows all the time. No scratches yet. Get them tinted black.

if i am not mistaken, the blue in the mercedes is actually the color of the glass. id personally go with a black/ dark charcoal grey tint as opposed to the metallic type. i think it looks slicker.

Black (especially if you have Navi). The high metal content in some of the 'mirror' tints can really screw with the rear antennae which can effect radio reception and navigation!!

some odd answers posted.

you will be happy with a charcoal film, and it must be a ceramic such as Solargard NP line.
