Without the front tint, i.e when you first got it, did it look like it needed it to balance it out?
Don't get me wrong I think the privacy glass at the back and no tint on the front looks OK. With the privacy glass in the back being almost black there's a bit of a contrast between that and the front. I think the Fuji white makes adds to this. 35% just sets it off right. Go on you know you want to!:arrow

Although the footrest is aftermarket the adhesive is quite strong and holds it in place just fine. It also gives more support underfoot. Worth getting the tweeter rings also. You can get these off the same seller on Ebay.

Will go with the tint and the footrest for sure. Thanks.
Although, the tweeter rings I'm really not sure of. I wonder whether everything needs to stand out and have an aluminium outline. Alanos's eBay store would have you believe that though. He has trims for the Window controls, CD Drive, Adaptive Dynamics control pod and for the Boot Release/Light adjustment controls. Madness!
Purely subjective, the rings do look nice but I'm not sure!

Your right you can go too far with these things, the important thing is knowing when to stop. We don't want Westwood coming around this isn't Pimp My Ride, although if you want a real laugh check out the logo on this guys website;

35% = illegal I'm afraid. Even more so when you add this to the slight tint the windows will already have as standard.
Leaving your self wide open to a ticket, being made to peel them off at the roadside or worst case scenario being accused of death by dangerous should you kill someone as a result of pulling out on a car/motorbike/cyclist because you didnt see them due to the illegal tints.
Yes they may look good but i will never understand why people do mods to their cars which are just asking for some police attention.

I rather have tints than a dog guard. I bet you keep a hi-vis vest in the boot as well.

If you knew what Ed does for a living you would understand his attitude to motoring offences.
