I've got a black/gold 182 and have a decent tint all round. I'll post a pic for you in a couple of hrs as still at work. Makes the car look 10x better IMHO. Go for it!!!

P.S is it already tinted?

tint it a bit but not too dark... will look lush tho

Personally I wouldn't - your car already looks the DBs with those wheels.

I wouldn't tint because legally you can only tint the rear windows and my thoughts are that cars with dark tints on the rears look a bit like vans. If I was tinting i'd do a ligh tint all around (exc. windscreen of course) but AFAIK that's illegal now to have your front side windows done.

30% is a good level.

no its not already tinted - but think that theres a UV filter on the windscreen or something

A very light tint professionally done would look good.

Go too dark and all round and it'll end up looking gash

Doesn't it alright have a light standard as standard?

Black tints on black cars tend to make them look like vans, or KITT!

Spend the money on a 172/182 grill instead, will finish off the front end nicely :approve:

^^maybe a good idea there - how much do they usually go for?

Team Think had some for sale for about £100 iirc. Try some breakers (MATT BLACK, cliospares, etc).
