No probs at all - nice wheels by the way
Q. Are they the factory tints? Do you know the gradient? I'm having mine done on the 11th March - 25% Front & 40% Rear and Back
Will post some more piccies later when home

I just had mine done and went with 40% down the sides and 15% on the rear, looks great, you don't get the van look.
I will post pics when the weather clears.

How do they put the tint on the glass? Is it some stick on film or is it something they do to the glass, like the opticians do for prescription sunglasses?
What sort of money are we talking about?
Sorry for the questions and I know they're a bit
