Went to Gatwick Auto Shades today and got 30% on the front and 20% on the rear (amount of light let through), and what can i say - these guys are fantastic. Their workshop is excellent with JapFest sharing with them, really nice place outside pease pottage, 10mins from Gatwick Airport (Approx.).

Their quality of work is excellent, and they are really friendly guys. I got the windows tinted, then they polished the windows and did a whole full wash of my car!

Top Guys, here's some photos...

Here with the windows out!

Mine was a 1.4 with the SP Kit. Was a nice little motor. Even though they've been around a while, the 206 still looks good and bang up to date.

Money could have been better used on suspension IMO

But they do look good.

Cos that law has been around from 1984 mate, its only the real dark tints on the front which have triggered off the law, if the police can see the driver then they wont bother much, anyway i did the fronts myself

very very true

so all in its cost £300...

£220 for tints...

then 2 upcoming costs...

£60 fine fropm cops
£20 to have the producer ticked by a test center saying the tints have been removed

still, you may be lucky & get away with it!
