on a black mk5 i'd be leaving the tints off.
they look great fully blacked out but as it's stupidly impractical to have tints that dark, i wouldnt bother at all.

If ya go for a tint make it light enough otherwise you'll end up taking it off when the guards do you for it.

I have the 3 rear windows tinted on mine (black car) i think it looks well,stay away from the 3 front ones though or you are asking for trouble.

It's very hard to find pics that capture the tint properly.I had a quick look there and found 2 that kind of capture it.

excuse the dirt

I don't know the were done before i got the car,i must check the receipt and see if it says anything.I thought any level of tint on the rear 3 windows was acceptable? nothing was sadi n the NCT anyway,i think there may be a lighter tint on the front doors also.

The three rear window's can be as dark as you want. The windscreen can't be tinted at all and the two front side window's can be 35%.
