Window Tint

[Rbware]

I have got some info that the shade of window tint on cars in SA is going to be increased to 35% this is going to happen very soon like in 4 to 6 weeks.

[skylineguy19]

i was under the impression it always had been 35%?

or are you talking front windows?

[Rbware]

Yes Front.....

[typevu]

Thats awesome news. Last time I went through regency I removed the front and the rear tint - left the rear quarters, and never bothered fitting tint again but if its going to be legal 35% all round then yeah I'll get it fitted again.

Changing a law to benefit drivers.....? Whats going on here?!?

give Ric a ring from Auto Perfection, i'm sure if you've already had tint from him before and you need it again he will be more than happy to look after you and new customer's too don't feel left out mention SAU for some discount

Then you would be better off getting your tinting tested out for opacity Dion....any tinting place would be able to tell you the % of opacity of your current tint

That looks good. Have you ever been defected for it or hassled by the police?

I'll be looking at getting my car done in the next couple months I think.

Nope, never been questioned about it. I have the recipts in my car so if they did question it I could show them.

Tinted windows made my car look so much better hey..... I didnt think it would make such a huge difference but it does.
