Question Window Tints, Hot or Not?

I have a MY02 Bugeye but really don't know whether to put tints on or not. At first i wanted to but the missus has said no, it'll look like a pimp mobile I wouldn't go that far but i would be interested in peeps opinions and maybe pics. My car is the one in the forground, i dont have any others i can post

Please vote if nothing else!

Thanks

This was my old WRX, light smoke tints all round. Looked sooooooooo much better with tints IMHO.

It's the standard OE Subaru one. Came on the car when I bought it new from Belgium

Best I can find for a straight on-ish shot at the moment.

Cool

Hi, thanks for this, will have a look - I've found some other info on the Evo forum too.
Looking at just light tinting something like 'light smoke' I think!
Was also looking at getting a car horn that plays Dukes of Hazard - really difficult to find though - and they're apparently not legal? But I think they're great!!
