Just changed out my tints from 20% all round to 35% on the sides and 50% on the back.
Its not as dark as I wanted.
Serves me right for listening to my girlfriend and the guy in the shop about the police and fines and blah blah blah.
Will change them to 50% after I've done a few more mods, got my CF roundels today so will do that when I finish work
Pics will come as soon as I've cleaned the car (they've made a right mess of it) and added the badges, angel eye bulbs are in the post as well so hopefully they will be here soon.
Gotta wait a few days before I can clean it so that I don't mess up anything with the tints.

Tint guy said to leave it a few days before I wash it to make sure the tints have stuck well.
Just finished work so gonna attempt the CF badges now.
Goodnight

And on the invoice im pretty sure the darker tint was called something 50 and and the lighter 1 something 35.
I'll check the invoice later.

as far as I know, the % means the amount of light allowed through the film.
I have 50% in the front, and 20% at the back, I'm thinking about removing the rear, and replace it with either 35% or 50% all around.
