ive never seen them close up?

Cant you just get your windows tinted light silver to save abit of money?

Does that price include the front 2 windows for 250?

it's the 2 rear side windows and the back window. the driver/passenger door's weren't done the same way.

they look good as they have a weird slight mirror effect in some light and in others they just look a slight dark tint.

have not seen an aftermarket tint like it, which is probably why the glass is so expensive!

Yeah your right!

Just rears and back.  There was a set on ebay a little while back.  I enquired but price was high. 

The windows don't look like they are tinted.  To be truthful i dont think Chromalux can be mimic'd using tints.  Just doesn't look the same.

chromalux was an option on g60's, i don't think it was standard. its a tint that has a verrry nice almost broze/copper tint to it. its a dark tint that when the light catches it it is almost chrome like( as said above). does any of that make sense? from my description it sounds tacky as hell and ugly as funk, but trust me it looks awesome!

to prove how odd it looks in different sunlight, it's on the rear window of this Rallye:
