35% all around? I'm trying to figure out what's best for me. I'm planning to get BSM and tint the back and sides dark and the front not as dark since it is not legal. On top of that it would decrease visibility at especially at night.

Yeah, ceramic 35% all around - no tint on the front. I wanted something subtle, not too dark. For some, 35% might be too light but I like the look. Keeps it classy.

I'm not really a fan of the CF mirror caps...if I plan on adding all the other carbon fiber extras from front to back then I would consider it. But I haven't seem them in person yet so perhaps that might change my mind.

I just purchased the CF m mirror cap from a guy in Germany. His thread can be found in the cosmetics section. They look great and are an easy install so I'll be switching between those

lookin good...did you do ppf too? I'm considering ppf but I think perhaps coat will be good enough since I don't drive freeways often and don't really encounter many rocks and debris.

No I did not do the ppf, mainly due to what you wrote.
I am extremely careful with my cars but enjoy them to their outmost.
Car care and other detailing things is on focus for me.
