After nearly one full week of possession, Im completely loving my new 2024 BMW XM Label in Jerez Black Metallic. Regardless of what the haters and reviewers could say, this factor is a beast and is plenty of enjoyable to drive! Its like a hybrid (no pun meant) of my earlier 2019 M550 and 2023 iX M60. And no new BMW could be full with out tremendous darkish window tint. #MissionAccomplished
The BWM XM and XM Labels privateness glass measures in at a really darkish 3% VLT from the manufacturing unit earlier than any home windows tint has been utilized. I knew it was darker than the everyday BMW privateness glass, however I couldnt imagine it once I noticed the sunshine meter. Only for comparability, the privateness glass on the BMW iX M60 is 14% VLT from the manufacturing unit with no movie utilized.
After making use of the XPEL Prime XR Plus 5 to the entrance home windows, the glass now measures in at a really darkish 3% VLT which was essential to match the privateness glass within the again. Additionally for comparability, I had XPEL Prime XR Plus 15 (12% VLT) on my BMW iX M60 and it measured in at 9% VLT after being utilized to the glass – simply not fairly darkish sufficient to match on privateness glass on the XM.
After making use of the XPEL Prime XR Plus 70 movie to the windshield, sides, and again, the privateness glass now measures in at a barely darker 2% VLT for an close to excellent match to the entrance home windows. Most likely ought to have gone a bit of darker on the tailgate because its not fairly as darkish as the opposite privateness glass.
Present OCD state of affairs: SATISFIED! For those who havent used this model or product earlier than, it’s excellent. Even in Texas in the course of the summer times 100°+ temperatures, you’ll really feel no warmth from the surface. Its value each single penny!
