+1 Bronze. It looks way more factory then black/charcoal on gold and goldish cars. Gives a much more high class feel too IMO.

Dark black tint always looks good to me.

I'm curious to see what this bronze tint looks like. It sounds good.

I was thinking something like that, on the lighter side like 40%-50%.
