WINDOW TINTING
I'm booking the car in to have the rear windows tinted (03 WRX blobeye) and I just wondered who's had this done and what tint you had applied. I'm not sure how dark to go on them?
The car is WR Blue.
Any pics of your WR blues with tints?
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Depends on why you're having them tinted i guess...
I went for Pentagon Light Smoke:
Pentagon - The Worlds No. 1 Specialist for Window Tinting, Reinforcement, Safety and Security for Vehicles, Buildings and Specialist Applications
(5 drops), very subtle. If you want to keep the rays out the little 'ens eyes though, a shade darker might be even better. But i didn't want two tone windows.
Not the best image, but an idea:

sunny day, mid to light tint. Works well, don't have to keep winding the window down to see at a junction as well

Same car, dull day, look much darker.

My brother in law (Allan) tints car windows for a living, give him a call to discuss. Mention me ie his brother in law & he'll do you a good deal on it. His work mob nr is 07801 607978. He works for AutoTint.
This applies to any Scoobynet peeps who want tinting done.

Thanks all......it's only the rear doors and back window that are going to be done, and I think I'll be going for a medium smoke.
It's booked in for the 20th November so I'll post pics once it's done
I must say, that wagon does look fantastic m8
