    Why do most arab cars have Tints on them, and i do know about being hot and all that, but Arabs tints even thier windscreens and we are talking dark tints here. When they come to england they do that to thier cars here too, or wait let me re phrase that if they are staying here and they buy a car in UK then they still do that. Whats with that??? Its not hot here.
    Is it because they dont want to be seen????

    well young dudes does that usually ,,, they do that to gather attention ,,, they want people to look at them and wounder how they do that ,,, and y no 1 trys to stop them ,,, and is it legal or not ,,, the same idea of putting 24's inch on u r ride ,,, the fact the u asked about it proves what am trying to say ,,, not to mention in saudi it was illegal to tint ur car ,,, so people with power used to do that ,,, and people started to copy ,,,,



    not to mention it looks good sometimes dont u agree ?

    many reasons:
    1: you are ugly and don't want to be seen.
    2: you have a girlfriend or girlfriends that don't want to be caught with you.
    3: you are powerful (royalty) and don't want to be recognised.
    4: it looks so damn good.
    5: gives the car a sinister look, like it has no driver within.
    6: it is illegal but if you are getting away with it that means you are a person of power.

    be free to add to the above, i must have forgotten a few.

    Tinting is global thing is it not? I mean no matter where you go in the world, you'll find cars that are tinted for different reasons.

    -Nope it doesnt make u look like a prat cause no one can see you.
    -in the uk you might get your car impounded but where these cars come from they get away with it cause they run the country.
    -in countries where its taboo to have a girlfriend you would want your windows tinted. also if its someone elses wife in the car with you i'm sure the tints are a necessity :)
    -poor visibility only at night, in the 45 degrees sun of dubai or riyadh or kuweit, etc... the tints will keep you cooler and visibility will still be good.
    -this past summer i was driving a fully tinted murcielago on the streets of london and the visibility was good both night and day. the front screen only has a very light tint but it looks like limo black because the side and rear windows are so dark. I got away with it because the car had arab plates on it.

    I have a SLR is Dubai and i havnt tinted it for one reason cos its looks silly.I want to be seen driving my car not hidding in it. In London in the summer you do see Arab cars with tints and my neighbour had his 430 tinted in the same way and it had Arab plates but boy did he have hard time cos Paddington and Notting Hill Police cars had marked him and stopped him so often that he got fed up.
    Theres no such thing as only royalty and Sheeks having tints as every other toyota corolla or mrecedes or bmw in dubai also have tints.

    It's a part of the "tuning" i think overall. I would mirror tint a Cayenne or a grey SLR for ex. Colorful tints for colorful cars.

    Yes i have quite ****ty tastes, but i like it.

    Apparently his post and my reply were deleted together. I'm not an Arab myself, but I'm pretty sure what he said was offensive to Arabs.
