Now These Are What I Call Window Tints

I really like it! No way you'd get away with it over here but it looks ace - like a lot of the manufacturers do when they put out press release photos of new cars!

Even the front window is tinted!

very nice motor, but would be like driving a coffin? B)

how long you reckon it would take the cops to pull ya over here?

He reckons he can see out of it!

It is in Arizona so I guess it's brighter out there - must be hard work at night though - I've got limo on the back window and that can be a pain at times at night when reversing!

I don't reckon you'd even get off the garage forecourt he's on there

Oh and these pics show you what yellow HIDs look like in the fogs!

After seeing these I'm very tempted now they're cheap :D

Apparently stateside it's quite easy to get a doctor's note to say you have sun-sensitive eyes and with one of those in your glove compartment you can get away with crazy tints even on the front.

Reason cops pull you for dark tints is it's extremely dangerous ... pulling across a crossroad at night years ago my brother had dark windows on his Astra and i was in the passenger seat when a biker zoomed past ....neither of us saw him , another split second and he would have come through my window :o .... we got such a shock that the tints were removed the next morning ...

To me, it looks like it has had in interior fire and charred all the windows. I'd like the rear windows done on mine but I would look more like a chauffeur. I get enough of the "Home James" jokes as it is.

The backs and rears were done on mine when I got it - think it was like this from Japan, whereas the fronts I got done lightly smoked at Tint-R in Nottingham to balance it out a bit. I do prefer it as they make a big difference on a sunny day in terms of the temperature in the car as well as allowing you to see easier in bright daylight.

Those tints look awesome, much better thank I'd have thought on a white motor.

That does look cool :)

I had a Toyota 4x4 as a rental in the US and it had B-Pillar back tints (privacy glass) and I have to say it made it almost impossible to see anything out of the back window at night - all you see are headlights and not really anything else.

I actually found myself not really using the rear view mirror or the back window after a while - don't think I'll ever get tints (on the rear window anyway) as it really reduces visibility and if you're someone who drives briskly ( ) you really need visibility at all times.........

You get used to them on the back when driving at night, in fact I massively prefer it for motorways and stuff now as it cuts glare down massively, something I notice as soon as I drive another car!

Worst bit with dark tints in the back is trying to reverse - that's usually a window down job as I don't have reversing sensors!
