Had my windows tinted, just very very slightly.

I didnt want dark chavvy windows, theres something i really like about just slightly tinted windows, like the back windows of some renaults and things.

What do you think? Its not really noticeable, but when you compare it to pics of the car before its made quite a big difference....

That looks really cool, what % has been done? Also is your front screen tinted too or is it just the way it looks?

suits the car, wouldn't get away with it on a lighter car, I recon it needs Mk1 rear lights next, although sod matching the paint!

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

I think its 50%, might be 30% though i can find out if you like.

Basically i looked round the demo cars and wanted it the same as a clio that was there.

front windows not tinted no, just the sides and rear.
