Well here is my sunset:

But I don't think any submissions will help unless you get two cars side by side taken at the same time/weather conditions/lighting/angle and cleanness of windows etc.

Even the exterior colour of the car will affect "apparent" tintedness and also interior fabric colours (ie absolutely identical models in the same place and time will look different if one has a light interior and the other has a dark interior, the estate versus hatch and even the addition of a sunroof may effect apparent tintedness)

A bigger factor is probably the fact that although there is ONE sunset option, there are very MANY graduations of aftermarket tint and suppliers.

theres quite a large difference between the front windows and those after the B pillar and on the above photo it barely shows, just to give you some idea how little use photos are

though i must say it does look rather nice in black

This what the sunset looks like, on two different race blue Octys, mine and the one I looked when deciding.

Hope this helps.

Wasn't gonna gt it on my car, but a dealer had an anthracite scout with it and a black vrs also fitted with it, both estates, and wierdly enough the black one looked a lot more tinted just because of the colour. When I opened the doors side by side, the glass was identical once you took the bodywork colour away.

Well, any advice on a good place where to buy good window tinting film?

I always go aftermarket with Pentagon Superglass - had it on all my cars now and never had a problem. Looks great and offers exceptional resistance to attack.

Seconded with the Pentagon had two Octy's done now.

Just had my car done by Pentagon this weekend and my mate had his Vectra SRi done 2 weeks ago. Great service and price from Pentagon. Both finished in Midnight tint from B-pillar back.

Highly recommended - speak to Gary at the Glasgow Branch.

Thanks for all the replies, i had to get it done stock due to being a company car but those pics have helped

many thanks

Pentagon are the best. Bar none!

How much would it be in the region of to get a hatch done? Not sure whether to do just the 3 for mini man in the back or do all 5.
