Window tints

[Ben_1uk]

Driving at night can be interesting with tints!

Ive got 75% limo tint on the back 3 and sunstrip and i did have 50% on the front but had to remove because of the rozzers.

Your allowed as dark as you want on the rear 3 and sun strip but only 25% on the front 2 

IMO each to there own, can check out my project page for how mine look and i wouldnt have it any lighter!

. . .the darkest you can legally go on the fronts is 35%. . .

I believe it is 25% as I remember seeing it on roadwars once when they had the light meter out.

Def an each to their own on this one, perhaps a poll is in order 

I am against any tinting other than standard - (It can look nice just not very often)

fronts have to allow 75% of the light through which is about what they are now

Standard MK4 windows have practically no tint, it has a green glaze to it when carefully viewed.

Tints look good in tasteful use. And as said practically all new cars have a medium smoke on all rears and a light smoke on front so even the manufacturers are using it.

Limo black is for asians in daddys Range Rover.

The guy moaning about tints. You don't like it, everyone else does. Simples. And tint doesn't mean BLACK, remember that, theres lighter colours which are always used.

I stand corrected - 25% it is then

I don't think everyone likes tints to be honest, but as I said before each to their own.
