how noticable is the difference between the back and front, could you get a progressive tye of hing so it gets darker down the car? that'd be cool

think mines 25% at the front and 70% at the back... but i think the legal tint for the front is 15% i decided against this tho... dont think youll get a quality job for 150 mine were 250 very good job and a courtesy car while i waited.

rekon its better to get legal limit all round or shade darker on the back?

how does ot stand when you have tinted windows in the car anyway as a optional extra?

Would have liked to have 20% all round, though it would have been hard to drive at night with it like that.

Even now I have to have the windows down when reversing at night :lol:


i got 20% aLl round on mine and even during the day it looks slightly lighter onthe front 2. Think its jsut due to the fact that all the lights cummin in thru the front windscreen.

ppl that get dark as fuck tints on the rear and then like 35% on the fronts just look proper shite!

imagine a 3dr hatch

the darkest the front is allowed to go is midnight tint

the rear window & the rear passenger sides can be limo black tint.

should blend well but remember anymore on the front and they will pull you over like someone else said you have to be able to see a shadow at least of someone driving gay rules I think because the americans off the base have all the windows limo tint an I've even seen the front window screen limo tint before too sickening.

as said, 30% is the maximum u can go for, any darker, then if u get stopped by the police and they ask u to take it out, then uve just wasted all that cash

I would go one shade darker on the fronts if its gonna be blacked out at the back, might look a bit silly. i paid £225 to have mine done so yeah thats a good price but you get what you pay for

I got 20% ish on my front side windows and 15% on the rear quarters and rear windscreen, never been stopped fined etc, wish i had gone 15% on the fronts too

legaly, your wind screen and front windows must allow at least 70% light to pass through them. Mine let through 15% light and i have been fined for them and tested twice by the police with light meters. Heres what mine looks like:
