If I was to do it, I would do it in the lightest possible tint you could get. Im quite fond of the standard tint on the series 1 glass.

A light tint like Robin has actually looks pretty cool. In all honesty though I wouldn't bother. Cops are cracking down on tints now. Had tinted windows in my RS about 3years ago.



Oh the shame of the CD on the fan and the 15" rims

Sad thing is the rims that are on that pic are the rims that are on the FRST in this pic



I sold them for £150 when I got my 17's and then brough them back in August for £40 off the same guy
