darken panels will not repel heat. you need special films which reject IR. Smile

yah man! i'm now very tanned on face & arms ever since i started driving my new forte. i try to park MSCP rather than open CP when given a choice cos the car takes a long time to cool down (mine is a black forte).

Cooler...less stress on aircon...less power used by aircon and more power channel to engine which meant more distance covered per litre.

There is no such thing and how many FC save? It all depends on how you accelerate your car.

Heavy footer burn more fuel while lighter footer burn less fuel.

everything play a part in fc bah.. prbably the higher percentage of fc control is based on foot weight.. but maybe colour do play a part too..

hmm... then i think i need to ask C&C how come my Whitey still average 9.3L/100km... haha... Darken stock windows Icon_lol

Imho, i may agree White color may make the car cabin cool down faster... but dun think there is not going to be any noticeable improvement for FC...

No worries. It's better to have a reasonable film to protect your own skin. pig pig pig
