It's the same as mine! lol mist up and the rear window gets rather damp. Acts like a tint lol I'm thinking about getting some light window tints, but any idea if the dampness will prevent them sticking well? I don't want them peeling off obviously

U might have a leak at window rubber or rear light seals. It's same problem as mine, as for the tints it's a good idea tho I don't know how well they will take with the dampness best getting it sorted first
 
Nice car! Window tints would be well set if installed properly by the time the dampness could affect them I’m sure.
 
So got round to cleaning the car today to see how could it was. Paint is next to perfect had a good spray job. Few imperfections nothing major. Really happy with it! I've bought the rear light seals as it looks like left light causing the problem. Got a front lip have jap wind visors there. Vti clocks on its way. And get new tyres this week. And also have a set of rayborg fogs on the way as well.

Yh I'm certain there's a typical leak somewhere. Visually the seals all look fine but I guess hard to tell so I'll definitely replace them at some point. Silicone up the lights or what not. Yeah I'm hoping tints wouldn't peel off etc. Cheers
 
New rear light seals have came and raybrig fogs as well waiting on other bits to arrive now.

So haven' done much to this due to the eg9 being home from paint and needing built. I have sourced a few bits for it facelift geunine front lip have jap wind visors where raybrig fogs came. Honda locking fob. Drivers door clock and got the clocks fitted as well. Will be awhile before I get near it. But the lip etc will be painted and other bits will be good as well.
