Hmm, the back window and 2 rear sides are done but does anyone know the legal percentage of darkness you\'re allowed on the front and if your allowed to tint the front windscreen too?

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers

legally your WINDOW TINTS infront of the b pillar must allow a minimum of 70% VLT* altho a while ago the lightest tint film only allowed 50% VLT* altho that might not be the case now. i\'ll see if my bro can ask his mate who tints windows about it. so its luck of the draw weather you get pulled or not with tints on your front windows. but if there too dark 30% VLT or less you can be made to pull them off at the side of the road.

*VLT = Visual Light Transmission

Front 3 have to let 75% through and that\'s pretty much standard so you can\'t touch them forward of the b pillar unless you want hassle from the cops and could void your insurance if you crash (they\'ll say your window\'s were illegal and not pay out). You can go as black as you like on the back 3.

Its such a grey area these days, as u can tell from the responses your gettin, which range from no tints, to 50% darkness.

I got fully blacked out by the way

Whos your mate from darlo? Coppers from darlo arnt too bad, i know people who have had illegal tints on and the coppers have just ignored the fact there in. Although i suppose it depends on the coppers.

Im from darlo incidentally u see.
