Do all Mr2's come standard with tinted windows or is it just the imports ?
Im going to take mine off as there as a big bubble in it & a big calder motors sticker in the back
Also as anyone actually had their windows tinted ?
What sort of job did they do as the rear window is a awkward shape ?

Re: Tinted windows ?
My rear quarters are tinted, I think it's only the rear quarters and back window you can tint legally nowadays anyway....

Re: Tinted windows ?
I'd say none come with tinted windows (beyond the normal tint) as standard.
Tinting the rear quarters and the rear window is popular in hot countries as it cuts down heat and glare, a lot of Jap cars tend to have this.

Re: Tinted windows ?
Me and 2 mates did all my windows (bar the front one of course )
Did them in dark smoke. The back one was pretty easy actually, no real probs.
Looks awesome and only cost me £25

Re: Tinted windows ?
Got tints all round (except windscreen) they are quite dark, see profile for pics. This is how the car came, got silver tints on top.......soon to be replaced they cut out a lot of glare and are really handy in summer
Passes MOT fine

Re: Tinted windows ?
ooops just noticed no decent pics on there, this one gives you the idea (the front window is wound down so can't see that )
Re: Tinted windows ?
I had the T bar glass done with my windows. The car didn't look right without the roof done IMO. Think it cost around £200 all in but that includes a lifetime guarantee. If they start to peel off or something they will replace for free.
They have been on for about 2 years now without any problems

Re: Tinted windows ?
true..
i want some nice seats in mine, and i think it looks cool when you can see them through the windows..
plus if you get a roll cage, it gives off an image of being fast as f***

Re: Tinted windows ?
So thats it eh?
Nah I recon rear tints look sorted, you could still see your seats through the front and door windows.

Re: Tinted windows ?
ok, personal opinion.. tints aren't for me, and it attracts unwanted attention from the police
Re: Tinted windows ?
I've been pulled in the MR2 nothing said about tints, they can offer security if the special ones, plus people can't see in so well to eye up nickable bits!
