F10 M5 AW - Window Tint?

Any suggestions on if I should do window tint on my AW M5? I have the Sakhir Orange Interior and already have delivery of the IND gloss black grills, gloss black side markers, and gloss black ///M5 Logo. I was going to leave the car without tint but someone gave me the idea today of doing 35% all around for a little tint. I wanted to make sure the car still "pops" with the sakhir orange interior.

Thoughts?

I still need to get you my pics of mine! I"ve got 35% on mine and you can still see the red interior. You definitely want to protect dash if you have the extended leather option and window tinting does help some with this.
