Hi all,
I have a 96 4.0 chimaera, and I would like to change the rear plastic window for a slightly tinted one, maily coz of peoples bright lights in my rear view mirror on the motorways at night, but also coz i had it on my BMW and it added looks and privacy!
P.s, no fancy comments please about buying an Escort insted!

Cortina perhaps? You could get one with a black vinyl roof to match the window then. You might find one with a nice brown roof, come to think of it, if you search very carefully.

Sorry, it's late, blah blah blah

why dont you buy some sunglasses to wear at night?

tinted plastic rear window on a Chimp is going to look a mess in no time as it will scratch up every time you fold the hood.

Twerlie,

Lowered, bigger wheels, low profile rubber bands, now the tinted window. Chim's look stalky in standard mode, I can't see how yours is gonna look any better, but each to their own I s'pose!

Do you want the gold badges too?

Glass can be tinted really easily, why dont you just drive backwards everywhere.
