Looks great! Well done.

I wonder how it'll look with curtains raised. Please post more pictures with curtains raised to see how it looks.

By the way, did you manage to solve excessive brake wear?

Hey Jim, it looks great, though I have a "Big BUT & I can not lie"! Hahaha

No seriously, & this is just me, but not having tint all the way around seemingly cuts off the flow of a car, making it seem as it's cut in half. Again, that's just me. Your car, however, just looks farkin great anyway! Tint or no tint!..

I can see where you are coming from Marque, unfortunately it is illegal to tint fronts in the UK, but I do think Jim's car looks better with rear tints.

Ahhh, ok, that is something I did not know. So definitely understood if that's the reason for rear only...

Lots of exotic car owners chance it and get away with it, but I am not sure I would be brave/stupid enough to do it

Yeah, "illegal" usually brings about consequences! I'm 1 to stay away from that myself, so I wouldn't chance it either!..
