Matie depending on the darkness too dark and you'll be getting tugged all the time so i would say its not worth doing the front.

I will eventually get the back of mine done.....

I would only go for 50% in the front (the lightest they can do) just wondered if that would make me prone to pulls? you do see loads of cars on the road with slight and heavy tints to the front!

Front of the B pillar must allow 70% VLT it just isn't worth getting them tinted any more.

If you had an accident and it was found that your car had a VLT lower than this then the insurance company could use this as an excuse not to pay out.

It was £240 for the black stuff to the rears. I should have done the fronts at the same time but lost my bottle with the legal issue

Besides the legal issue,it aint worth it.
My mates got heavy tint all round and can see nothing at night.....very dangerous at roundabouts.
Go for a drive at night wiv you shades on and its just the same.
Yep,it looks cool,but not worth the blindness or the points...
