Yeah they make it look much better - even better still as mine is an EF and i added the EL Black Outs in the center for the piller-less look - well as near as an e-series can be piller-less

As long as they are a legal tint and not green/blue, all my car's have had tinted glass and all will, but I don't like the DARK look, there is such a thing as to dark, well to me anyway.

Tinted windows is the shiz, both my cars had it.. my Verada the caryard took the tint off the front windows before I got it... that soon had to get redone tho :P
20% is good, but also not piratical when doing long distance at night time. |

I think mine looks great, being an EL with the blackouts between the doors it looks great with darker windows! :

as long as the tint is black/grey it looks awesome, especially on red/white and black cars

I rekon some colours suit tint more than others..eg Black the tint in my glasses is enough to avoid glare in the sun.. Bbecause my car is never garaged. i don't want my interior getting cooked any more than it already has! So I will definitely consider having my windows tinted in the summer..but it will be for functionality not looks |
