mine were done when i bought it, and i like them.

i like them less now i've had to remove the front, but i can't imagine my car without them now.

i have 35% on the back and 15% on the front and it seems to be the perfect ballance between visibility and style,

other thinks to consider is,

A. Makes Car Safer in an impact as thy contain the glass and stop it flying into the car and reduces glare

B. security reasons, Makes it harder for people to see into the car and makes it take that much longer to break into

so that's a yes for me as long as it's pratically and tastifully done,

and make a car look like a van, not true,

maybe a slight tint wouldnt be soo bad, the cars ive driven with tints have all been really dark to be fair soo might be an idea.... 15% at the front though, would that really be hard to see inside the car franza?
 
i've got limo black on the rear three windows and nothing on the fronts, looks good imo and i don't really find it harder to drive with

I don't like the look of just rear tints, especially if they're really dark.

My car has dark on the rear sides and light on the fronts, and I struggle to see out of them at night. When I have some spare money, they're all getting redone - Light smoked.

soo in your case the thieves wouldn't really have a problem....? Just saying because you stated that as one of the upsides......

well alot of theves just take a passing glance usually,

from a distance it does look a bit darker, but it was a toss up and i decided i'd rather be able to see out, but the point is still valid, if i did want more security i would have tinted them darker, i think the back ones are around 50% now that i think of it, i just gave it to the fella that did it and told him to make a decision on what he thought was best compromise between night visibility and style,

I never get any hastle from the cops either as you can see the driver through the front, still glad i did it

go to bed..you are obviously overtired...they only look that way when the paint is faded or dirty and the tints are a very solid compared to the car

I also have a silver GT and t looks good. Dont go too dark, i got a medium tint on the rear and sides, and the close to illegal tint on the fronts. Looks just right. I would call it smoked...
