Default Now with tints!

Just had rear tints fitted to the Bug, great job by the guys at S & C Autostyle in Littlehampton, using Suntek 15% Carbon film what do you guys think?

Takes some getting used to when you look out the back and the sun appears to have gone down!

I went for 15% light transmission and it seems to be ok, only drove at dusk not full night so far, the next shade is limo black which I think will be too dark, the next lightest was just not dark enough. If you're close by (Sussex) or at Japbash you can take a look.
