Group Buy" Window Tinting

[hippy]

I'm trying to organise a group buy for window tinting.

Whos interested?

Does anyone know any good tinters around the place? Must be top quality stuff. I know of one already: normal cost is 360, but can be much less if we get lots of cars.

Thanks

People who are definites: 5 so far

sskylinee (and his brother)

These are the places that do the tinting, well the ones that i've asked so far:

Scorpion - 295, best tint he's got metal based, not dye colour based.. called endurance. guaranteed against everything including fading and optical clarity with absolute life.

extra 60 bucks to remove old tint.

Others please get hard prices!!! so then i can post it up so then if people wish to go somewhere else then we can organise it for them too!!

Oh yeah one last thing, please no timewasters or pretenders, we dont' want to have to ask a business to do a group buy of 15 poeple and have only 2 show up. its not fair on the guy so please only say u are definite if u are in fact definite.

Thanks

Tint-a-car in Elizabeth do $250 for formula one for us RAAFIES. Give them a call

[hippy]

formula 1 is the best u can get right??

[Chris32]

I'd be keen for sure, but I'd also need the shitty tint removed from my rear window first

I only need the two front windows and the rear window done, those two smaller ones at the back already appear to be tinted

[32godzilla]

I'd be interested, not keen to pay $360 for tint, but $200 - $250 sounds okay. Didn't know it cost that much to tint windows...

We get a guy in to my work (complete audio) that does window tinting, he does a good job and will do whatever shade you want.

[TIMMMAYYY]

Im very keen.

[MattR]

Will they do my Barina:)

[TIMMMAYYY]

cut the springs in the barina dude.

quality lowering job.

U can get angle grinders for like $70 nowerdays can't ya? I'll help.

Put the window tinting money towards stickers and other performance enhancing bits and pieces. Maybe a wing on the bonnet?

Hippy hook me up with details.

Suppose you guys alreday know, but it is illegal to tint the front two doors of your skylines....Just saying cos if u get def...def.....*cough*....defected you havta take it off for regency

[hippy]

illegal to tint front 2 doors?? i dont' think so ... as long as u tint within 35% or so i think ... i've sorta got a list of a few places now ... maybe a few more then i will start phoning around to get hard numbers ...

[CheekyR32]

regency made me peel my tint completely off on both my skylines.. grrrrr

Id be keen but I want tint which is about 20%....and the mirror style look, which most places wont do.

[hippy]

ok the best place so far is this one place called scorpion i think, just north of the city not too far out.

the one that tint a car does is what scorpion considers their mid range section, which scorpion will do for 240 or so before group discounts ... and yes tint a car will offer life time guarantee against bubbling and pealing ... however not visual clarity... so it will fade and change but not peal and bubble. so eg if someone breaks a window it will be hard to match the same colour tint if u've had it on for long enough. The other film which is the best one they have has a life time gurantee against fading, peeling, bubbling, optical clarity and EVERYTHING else.. it will

never fade so if someone smashes your window after 10 years and you go back and put the same film on you won't notice the difference between the new one and all your other windows.

you can add reflection percentage so when someone walk past it, its like the bathroom mirror...you can apply makeup using my tinting according to my female friend who rang them up.

any comments?

[hippy]

btw i think this place is just behind macdonalds on main north rd ...

TIP: if you have tinting already, most tinting places will charge you extra if they have to remove it.

[Nozila]

im interested in getting my car tinted as well so put me on the list please. In regards to not being able to havethe front side windows tinted, i hope your joking as this would defeat the purpose of getting your car tinted. imho anyways.

[Bl4cK32]

Sorry to say Hippy, but the previous owner of my car had to remove the tinitng fron the drivers and passenders door to pass regency. Someone better find out b4 u spend the couple of hunderd to get em done. - Not being a downer just wanna know for sure myself. (Btw he passed with the back and 1/4 windows still tinted)

[Miss*33]

When my previous car had to go thru Regency (it came from NSW), the front window tint had to be removed - the back window and rear quarter windows were ok.

I was told they would not let the front tinted windows through because they didn't have the Australian Standards stickers specifying what % the tint was... the back windows didn't have the stickers either but they weren't fussed.
