What i fink look nice. Is limo tint all at the rear. Two rear sides aswell as back window! Then light smoke at the front sides! Then the small strip which fades out at the top of the front window! It's all cheap to pick up too if u wanted to give it a go yourself! Check youtube for some tutorials! But i tell you now its hard! I tried today on my corsa! Looked nice once done but around the edges at the top of the window it started to pill off lol!

thanks again dan ur a legend

aron i may try removeing the side strips but im concerned that the colour under the strips and badges will be slightly darker because its the kinda colour that has faded over the years and the same goes for the badges

i have some post 97 strips sitting under my bed thats brand new but couldnt make my mind up about fitting them last time.

my mate know someone that works at honda sprinfield that could do a bit painting for me and was think of getting all my arches,bumper trims,skirts,door handles,bootlock surround,scuttle panel painted in pegeout graphite grey.

also there is another option for the light smoke window tint and that is to have the done in executive smoke that lets in 50% light instead of the 35% light that the light smoke does.

what do ya think

heres the pegeout grapite grey colour

do you think i should get the door handles and the other bits i mentioned done in the graphite grey aswell?

i think the graphite grey and the green would work quite well together because its not as light as some anthracite colours

i think get the skirts on first, then decide if you want the tints

I did some more as i couldnt resist.... think the darker wheels help the tints
