    Hi,

    I want to tint the windows on the Mini. Not too sure whether to go for the full drug dealer all round tint or just the back windows.

    I am aware of the legalities of tinting front windows, but can anyone post some pics of their car with window tints and tell me what % tint you applied?

    Thanks

    yeah especially if the police are involved with your accident, they will report the fact that the windows are illegal and then sure stuffed...:disapprove:

    Not sure Alfie (Tinthaus did it )..its the lightest one ,the windows are already tinted as you will know so take care if you go any darker which will take you way over the limit .
