I understand there's a maximum tint level allowable by law. That looks really cool, what with the contrast between black windows and white body. How much did that cost you?

Is the windscreen done too, or just side and rear?

£120 doors and back about the contrast not sure how to tell, but its about 50% less on the doors then the rear and it wasnt the darkest tint. Hope that helps :)

*edit

Those tints look cool 8-) I personally prefer the JDM look though, no tints on the front and dark tints on everything behind :)

For reference, when my windows were tested by the plods machine at the side of the road, the (4th gen) OEM bronze tint only just passed, and that's quite subtle.

If it's OEM glass though what could they have done if they didn't pass?
