Looking at quotes for my 3 door.. certainly changes the look of the car- looks great.. what did that cost if you don't mind me asking? What level of tint have got up front, and is that total black out on the rear..

The rear came standard and I haven't changed them left them as they are the only thing I've added is tints to the front and I've gone for the lightest possible
Charged me 40 quid

Get some pics up, been thinking of this myself !

They look very smart. But be very careful. Front windows, windscreen to B pillar are already smoked to the darkest legal tint allowed by law. Smoking them further you run the risk of being pulled by the Traffics.

To be fair I think u can hardly tell that they are Imo

 

[lfcrule1972]

Is that on all Audi's Scottyg or just those with tint already ?

Tints on the front windows are already tinted from factory to the legal limit however I've known people have light ones like me n never get bothered however u never know but I think people that have full limo on the fronts are way more likely to get tugged by police
My penny's worth

Agreed, I've seen far darker on car front windows, I think it would have to be a v mean policeman to pull you for those

 

[FBF01]

Looks awesome, but totally illegal.

I was going to have mine done on the R but the lad who tinted the rears said it was illegal to do so and it would potentially result in 3 points if stopped, so thought better of it

 

[Quattro colin]

Well wots people thinking I'm liking it a lot

 

[Jassyo06]

Like the tints on the windys...and no doubt the rear light cluster "which on my sportback are really dark to begin with" will look good but on the headlamps.....jeezus you are mental.....lol

Edit...the rears look gash

As simon says don't use insulating tape.....Gorrila tape is much better...

Most, if not all manufacturers use slightly tinted glass on all windows of the car. Legal to darken behind B-pillar but illegal to darken before it.

Have you smoked your front headlights? Or did I mis-read that? If I didn't, again, illegal. It will fail an MOT and PC plods roadside test. Anything reducing light output is dicing with a few points. Hopefully you'll be fine, I just wouldn't want to be in an accident or be stopped with those mods. Sorry if I'm sounding negative, I'm not meaning to, they look great, well windows do. Just don't want you in sticky bubble.

No I haven't done the headlights only the rear lights and reflectors and it is a vinyl wrap called fly eye which there company state it is legal

Yeah I wanted the rs3 grill any way as thought it looked better than the chrome one

 

[KenL]

Sorry to sound like an old ****, but there are sensible reasons why you should not tint the front windows.

Smoked tail lights just look boy racer (AKA chavvy) to me - sorry

 

[ChivsBang]

Here's one that was de- chromed down the side and around the front grille.. looks good I think

Never mind the lights, those exhaust tips look well smoked, get em shined up man.

Personally I think the front tints and lights look too chavvy, leave that to the corsa boys.
