Assuming you've got the Tamiya kit which is a mid/ late version, you need to apply zimmerit. Atak makes resin zimmerit sheets, so that might be an option if the idea of doing this yourself doesn't seem appealing.
The mid version without zimm had some details that were different from the mid with zimm, such as the smoke grenade launchers on the hull deck and the commander's pistol port, both were later deleted and not seen on mid vehicles with zimm.
I personaly wouldn't place a mid Tiger I without zimm in Normandy, but that's just my opinion.

Hope this helps.

regards,

Marc Brandes
