PM user Yaah31 if you are NOR, he lives in Mount Helena, just got his done like 3 weeks ago, but i forget who by. The guy did a really good job and only charged $250 to do his car which is a 4 door, so will be cheaper seeing you have a coupe. Yaah31's car looks awesome now though!

Yeh dainsdabomb is good too, seen some of his stuff on some other Skylines, but he isn't mobile, you have to take your car to him. He quoted Yaah31 $250 as well, same as the the other guy except the other guy came to Matt

Maybe call TKO and ask them.

The only information in the Road Traffic (Vehicle Standards) Rules 2002 is :

Window tinting

(1) Glazing used in a windscreen of a motor vehicle must have a

luminous transmittance of at least —

(a) for a motor vehicle built after 1971 — 75%; or

(b) for another motor vehicle — 70%.

(2) Windscreen glazing of a motor vehicle must not be coated in a

way that reduces its luminous transmittance.

(3) However, subrules (1) and (2) do not apply to the greater of the

following areas of a windscreen —

(a) the area above the highest point of the windscreen that

swept by a windscreen wiper;

(b) the upper 10% of the windscreen.

(4) Glazing used in a window or interior partition of a motor

vehicle must have a luminous transmittance of at least 70%.

(5) Glazing in a window other than the windscreen may be coated

to achieve a luminous transmittance of not less than 35%.

(6) Glazing that has been coated to reduce its luminous

transmittance must not have a reflectance of over 10%.

(7) The luminous transmittance requirement in subrule (5) applies

to a vehicle instead of the corresponding requirement in the

relevant ADR.

(8) In this rule —

glazing means material fitted to the front, sides, rear or interior

of a vehicle, through which the driver can see the road, but does

not include a coating added after manufacture of the material;

luminous transmittance, for glazing, means the amount of light

that can pass through the glazing as a percentage of the amount

of light that would be transmitted if the glazing were absent.

AFAIK it's only light transmission (ah see above post :down:) so in theory colour wouldn't matter.

Of course, there's also the issue re 'mirror' tint or reflective films and light tranmission. The police can use a device which measures light transmissions through the windows...not sure if most cops use it or just yellow you to make you go to the trouble.
