    i do like the look on them from the outside, i was going to do them on just the back 3 becuase i cant be asked with the front too if im just going to be pulled all the time. but now im probably not becuase its quite dark from the inside for the passengers and at night when trying to reverse. thats just me, i like it light in the car. You can either buy a kit of ebay or sumthin for like £15 and have a bash at it yourself (what i was going to do) or get done by the pros which can cost anything from £100 - 200. My bro spent £200 on his 5 door car

    Tip:

    Go to a scrappie and buy the rear 1/4's. (and the two front if your interested) I do have some at work atm.

    I goot 2windows (tinted) for 20quid! (including discount though)

    imo just doing the back three doesnt look good, go for the same "tint" the whole way around the car - personally if you are going to tint the front two windows then go for the smoked look -

    disagree with that !!! its illeagal for starters !!!!

    if you get the back ones a few shades darker than the front it will look sweet !!!



    this is mine front no tint , rear passenger tinted, 1/4 window a little darker and the rear and back window darker again !!!!

    can put a larger pic up if you cant see it that well

    yes i never said it was legal thats why i said only get the slightly smoked and is also why red advised the police will not bother you too much if they are only slightly smoked. i also said that In My Opinion it looks shit if you have the back darker then the front - thats My Opinion and one that i stand by
