Wink Tints on MY53 blue STI?

A quick question.

MY53 blue STI is currently in the garage having PPP/springs/19"wheels/tints fitted.

What percentage of tintage looks best - 35 or 25%

Your views would be welcome

Thumbs up

I had our Audi A4 done the other week, 35% in the front and the Darkest they did in the rear, Looks good as the cars a very dark blue/Black metallic but my neighbours think I'm a drug dealer now...

I think I'll go for 25% front and 35% rear when I get the scoob done

I'm a bit worried about getting my Scoobie done, the front window fell off its runners and got scratched quite badly, fixed now but it would have killed the tints

I have a blue 53 reg STI as well. Did not bother tinting the front windows, but got the back 3 done. I think the guys told me it was either light, medium or dark, with dark basically being black! I got the medium and it means you have to go up real close to see through - they look class mate!

I had my rears done Limo black



but isn't tinting your front windows going to invalidate your insurance policy?

Aye, it will! - Its illegal here in Northern Ireland and suspect its the same in UK. The right police officer could book you on the spot...

Not had any trouble from the police as yet, worst case will have to remove the front tint...
