Window Tinting

[OKBANANA]

Hi,

I'm looking for a place that will be able to tint my windows (preferrably around 10%) in the Canberra area?

Caveat: for an off road vehicle..obviously.

Thanks mate, I'll give him a call in due course.

Not sure they'll do 10% but try solartint in belconnen.

I have similar tint in one of my rides, hate it.

I cant reverse at night without sticking my head out the window, cant see pedestrians even.

Will be looking at removing and getting re-done in something a bit more legal and sensible!

They did my car so i can recommend them too.

Im pretty sure they wont do 10% and i wouldnt recommend it anyway. it looks good but its pretty hard to live with, unless you dont plan on reversing or driving at night

What are the legal tint levels? I know it is different for rear windows vs side and illegal on the front...

[Trozzle]

Something like 25/30%

Mine was 5%

even during the day I was all like

[Datman]

Something like 25/30%

I'm pretty sure the darkest legal is still 35% VLT for side and rear windows on passenger vehicles.

I've found metallic content reflects more heat/UV, has more of a mirror effect and more privacy.

Can also recommend Solar Tint, worth the spend for a quality ride, however my Datto gets the DIY treatment, tinting back windows sucks!

Can any one recommend someone in Fyshwick for the tint?

[ZCR]

solar tint on kembla street

[Shell]

Yeah my R33 was done at Solartint... still looks good many many years later

[GT-R32]

Sweet, booked in at SolarTint Fyshwick for next Thursday.

Hey mate,

How much did it cost? Looking to get my daily done (Berlina) but unsure of the cost.

TOP CAT in Grenville Cct Phillip. I'll be ringing them on Monday to get a quote which I will post up here

The R34 GTT was done by them and it's awesome work. There small sticker is on the windows so I will give them a go for the 32

Go to instant windscreens and tinting in fyshwick, shell knows terry aswell afaik. Good bloke his the manager there.

Would tint any percentage u want but Id say the darker would cost more.

Passenger vehicles limit is 35% +/-5% (30 legal, 29 illegal)

Goods vehicles (vans/utes) is 35% for front windows and you can have the rest 5% if u want. I think there's a refective level aswell which is like 8-10% from memory which is basically nothing. So no limo tint or chrome fade.

Any idea how much mate? For the cost of the tools/tint I'm considering giving it a crack myself, practice on my skyline.. if it turns out not too bad, move onto my daily. I've looked into it a bit, the good quality tints to get with good adhesive etc, still works out very cheap

[RS4-S]

$250-$350 should be rough price for a sedan I'd say

[Sinista32]

$375 for my GTR at Solar/Instant Tint

[Shuyin]

I had 10% on my GTR when I bought it, absoulte pain in the ass. Just get it done legal mate, looks 100% and you don't have to worry about being defected for it. Though cops might try too anyway
