Tbh I don't like tints... Standard windows are partially tinted, and having different colours front/back looks odd in my opinion.

Alloys, BBS reps or RS4 reps would look awesome!

Cupra rear bumper, not too sure. Get everything sorted this week, then post up pics of the whole car.

Get tinted rear lights, or cheaper method is get Lamin-x, can look great :)

Tints don't look too bad on the grey really, and I would go for coilovers before the cupra rear. Add into the mix of alloys the Octavia vrs ones. They look stunning in anchrite on the grey. Have a look at my rr to see about tints as I have same colour as you.

i think i will do the tints on the rear windows as ive been quoted £90 for the rear 3 windows....but shall have another think after the alloys are on + thinking about coilovers rather than lowering springs as i guess lowering springs will just knacker my shocks etc.

+ bumper & bonnet go tomorrow :)

Blimey £90 is a great deal. Could look good, just don't get limo tints :p

When's the date that your bumper/bonnet will all finally be fitted?

cannot wait though!!

Surely 50 all round is illegal?

Side windows must allow 70% of light to be transmitted through, and seeing as windows are partially tinted at standard, an added 50 would make them illegal?

I may be wrong thought, as I don't know much about tints....

Remember when you're adding mods you have to tell your old friend - the insurance. Coilovers especially could bump it up a good bit. Just your luck I suppose.

Yes 50 opn the fronts are illegal but strictly speaking any tint on the front is illegal! I know people with 50 all round and they've never been stopped.

Piccies :)
