Cupra Tints

[walshy]

My mystery blue cupra hatch is coming in October.

I've already got the gloss black badges, wind deflectors and plan to gloss black all the S badges, wing-mirrors and roof too.

I'm looking into some tints, not 100% sure on what the factory glass looks like in person but does anyone have any recommendations as to the level of tint I should go for?

I was thinking 35% on the fronts and 20% on the rears and back window.

Also since I'm going this far, opinions on tinting the front/rear lights and number plates? I wasn't going to do it but I want the car to look evil.

Thanks guys

Think you'll find tints on the front are a big no no legally speaking

I’ve read that elsewhere on this forum too.

Windscreen is pretty much a no go and the fronts need to let in 70% of the light, and as they come from the factory with slight tints already you basically can only put something very light on them. And I mean very light - not worth it.

I'm not going to touch the windscreen, I'll take you guys advice on the fronts, thanks for your replies.

I'll do the rears and see how it goes

Fronts are already tinted to much to be able to add any tint from memory, save your money and fine/invalidated insurance.
