tinting windows tomorrow -which shade????

Booked into professional tinters tomorrow

Can anyone tell me which % tint they would recommend to get the look of an HSE spec

I want it as dark as possible for privacy and styling but don't want it so dark we loose the ability to see clearly in the evening

Mine is and XS spec so already has very light factory tints. Deffo NOT looking for a Limo tint

Was initially thinking either 35% or 23% or as dark as 20% any comments from experience would help - FL2 3.2 i6 - There is no Replacement for Displacement

If my wife ever sells my stuff for what I told her I paid for it, there will be some bargains out there!

I went for the one lighter than limo and it's an exact match for the factory tint - also went on an XS spec so had the exact same light tint you have


hope this helps!

Alternative is to wear dark glasses for maximum privacy Ex 2010 Freelander2 GS-e Diesel manual Silver owner

Like the look Thumbs Up . FL2 SD4 Metropolis Auto Santorini Black / ivory completely stock.

It's true that light travels faster than sound, some people look quite intelligent until you hear them speak.


Stop global winging.
