So my 206 Already has tints on the rear 3 windows. However I'm not sure if i like them or not I'm 50/50. What do you guys think? would it look better without tints ? I am trying to make it look Smart, not Chavy (I know there's a bodykit already on it). Opinions are welcome.

Each to their own :p. I had all my rears tinted that dark and I love the fact I can leave something in the back seat and no one will pinch it

I would get rid of the tints, think they are too dark! If you like the body kit then thats okay, I would personally leave the side skirts on and remove the front bumper for a standard one.

If it was mine I'd want the windows as tinted as possible with that front end.

Personal opinion: change front bumper to sport one, keep tints as it looks good with the handles side strips and fuel cap and a red and black theme looks good IMO

Already in the process of colour coding.

Haha, yeah IF I was to change it then maybe it should be both front and rear not just front ?. and would the side skirts match (IE be the same length from the floor etc)

EDIT: I have colour coded the Side Strips and Mirror Caps (Still need to do the Door Handles Rest of the Mirror and Petrol Caps).

Red handles & black spoiler would finish it off nice.
