    None.

    As said smoked would look better out of the two.

    had tints in the saxo when i bought it, i ripped um out intending to redo them..

    now i think ill leave it without tints,

    theyre impractical for driving (cant see out back window) and the draw unwanted attention from the boys in blue..

    Already had tinted windows on my car when I bought it, looks good I reckon. Although I think they only suit black and silver cars.

    i think i will go for a very light tint all round tbh, the maximum that you are aloud on front all round .

    i personally think the darker the chavier.

    if it has to me done, dark smoke imo.. prefer untinted though

    IF i was going to get tints i would get the legal limit all round

    its a pain in the arse getting pulled over, and the only thing that tints attract are little girls or coppers

    i think if there done nicely/professionally then they look good on some cars. Silver car with tints should look ok, i would go with Limo on sides, smoked on back.

    Front doors: 30% tint, Must let 70% of light through

    Rear: As black as you like from A pillar backwards

    the front your not allowed to tint anymore

    and in any case tints are gay imo, had them and ripped them out, so much better

    dont you mean B pillar m8??

    i had them on my Gold Furio and i loved them. I had Limo on the back then a dark smoke on rear sides then a light smoke on front, i never got pulled for them. At 1 meet there was a guy with a testing machine, he tested my front which when bought were supposed to be on legal limit turned out to be only leting 45% light through, but i never had any problems with them.

    I drive around most of the time with my drivers window open anyway. In two minds to get them on my Black vts i prob wont atm but i say go for them m8. Get the front dont very slightly tinted then a dark smoke round the rest and ul be fine.
