Window Tinting
I've seen a lot of FD's with tinted windows pretty dark (maybe beyond legal limit), but havent seen any 2nd gen with them.

Anyone got any pics of tinted windows? And not just the bronze tint from 10AE. Thanks

I just posted a pic of my car here. https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=217924 My tint is not legal but I have had it for about 2 years now and haven't had any problems. Don't know the % or anything though.

Check the avatar- did the side windows in 5%-
opted to leave the rear window clear (I drive mostly at night, and backing with a heavily tinted window is damn near impossible)
