I think they look better without tints, with the exception of the Type-R's. imo tints give the car the wrong image.

I was shocked at the price though... around £100 per window! Why is the cost so high?

Hi Soulgirl, I can't find any pics of Blue. I want to be different without being chav.
I've been quoted £260.00 for dark smoke at back to lighter at front, and a sun strip on windscreen. Wanted either subaru or 84of300 in screen but been told, "that is chav". Is there anything I can do to my car without it being Chav. How many times have I said CHAV

Well my 2p is that I'm fed up with everyone saying 'that's chav'. I don't consider subarus in any shape or form to be 'chav'. I think the term chav is saved for what we termed years ago as a young lout. Todays young lout cannot afford the running costs or insurance of a subaru so are hardly going to embrace the breed into their culture on any scale.

As you have a blue car, why won't blue windows look ok? I think it could look bloody well nice if done properly.

Some people just can't stand the though of someone else looking different and individual and possibly getting all the attention

Go for it!

In addition to my post above.... are you expecting to sell your car soon then? If you are then spending money on it is silly but if you, like me, have no intention of selling her, then spruce her up to suit your own personality

mine is a limited edition as well, but the tints are removable

mine are totally legal..


the back window is dark
the rear passengers is not so dark
the front are lighter
cost me £200 and its the only thing ive done on my car that didnt go wrong

you can see through the rear passenger windows, but its harder to see through the rear window

Agree with everything being classed as "Chav", Ive got a "Chav" subaru graphic on my "chav" P1 but Id like to see most "chav"s beat me at the lights or round a track

Chav rant over

Everyone to their own "me thinks"

In my day 'Chav' (capital C??) meant a pikey or a gypo..... Its only the last couple of years that its drifted to the young Burberry oiks of today. Ahhh those were the days.

Your car looks the business mate. Who gives a **** what people think as long as you like it!!!

Ive just whacked a 'SUBARU' graphic on my rear windscreen. I have been slated by my whole family for being an "essex boy". I love it though.

He's right but as long as you can remove them before selling and are happy to write off the cost then why worry?

IMO it looks better without though!!
