Has anyone got some before and after shots of a P38 with window tint? Thinking with the big windows it might help in Summer a fair bit. But concerned it will make the windows look bigger and not suit the car.
My s15 200sx looked better with the windows untinted and felt tint spoiled the lines of the car.

I reckon window tints make the car. So long as its not overdone. And with the age of the plastics in the p38, tinting is somewhat of a necessity. The 95 model I had, had self destructing plastics.
Help save it while you can.
Can only show you after shots on my last of the Gems model I have now.

I tinted mine a couple of weeks ago, 30% tint. Hope this helps.

I had mine done as soon as I got the car. Darkest legal, it keeps things a whole lot cooler. I have also got a blind for the tailgate and blinds for the rear sides. A 300mm strip of the black plastic exterior tint film the boy racers use on their headlamps across the bottom edge of the front screen completes the set. Got to be ready for those 45c days

I seem to remember the Wheeler dealer show featuring the P38 including window tinting. Could be wrong. Check out the you tube file.

Unfortunately the episode has been removed from YouTube due to copyright reasons. But I think I'll get them done looking at what pics have been posted and that my car isn't exactly going through beauty therapy with the Xrox front bar, should soon have a rear tube bar and rock sliders... None of them exactly "prettying" the car up ha ha.
