Re: window tints.
lol its illegal on these due to the green tint. Front windows must let in 75% of light - the green tint plus any other tiny puts it below this legal limit

medium front,
dark smoke rear,
paid 130ish i think..
there fairly dark but fortunatly police in tamworth have never been too bothered about them, can still see me when driving from outside.
ide recomend medium all round.
