They look good as long as you dont go to dark or do that really crap thing where you get limo tints on the rear and light tints on the fronts

I've got limo tints on my cab all round (it was already done before i bought it) and i must say that although at night time they can be a pain (cant really see behind through the wing mirrors) they are soooooo handy when theres some little pricks sat next to me in traffic in a bodged up 1.0l nova with there stereo on so load that the speakers are starting to go tinny, coz i can see them but they cant see me. not to mention the fact that you can get away with lookin at fit birds without looking like a perv

. Not to sure if the police would like it mind you, cause your only allowd 33% dark arnt you??

That sounds well over the odds to me buddy... a company near me charged a friend £130 to do her type R, and they made a proper good job too.

nope, your right..... to be honest though, it doesnt look out of place in my eyes and it does allow you to see something out of the rear mirror at night. i did hear of someone who said that they can dye the plastic windows, but mines not a zip in one so wouldnt be able to be done not to mention that if i did want the tints removing it'd proberbly mean a new rear screen. Cheers, Guy.
