Hi All,

After recommendations of people to do window tinting to my car and also rust repairs and proofing?

Seen 2 companies so far, Tinting Solutions and Tint A Car, both at Albion

$300 cash for Tint a Car and yet to get price for other mob.

Other mob are also doing rust proofing(EndRust agent) to a bit of surface rust on under body, he said he will spray it with a rust kill product which oxidizes the rust, then brush loose and clean up and coat several times with a wax/lacquer style paint to seal it. For a GTR r33.

Advice on procedure for rust proofing that will be quoted? and further recommendations if in the know of any others would be appreciated?

Cheers

obviously, I cant tell you where to go.

but one thing to consider....

the base colour of the tint.

I have seen, blue, green, brown, grey and red.

mate got tint on a cx7, has a very slight green tinge to it.

the wifes mazda 3 has a grey base.

this is my preference, so id pay extra.

just something you may not have thought about.

Thought about trying it yourself?

eBay has tint rolls for under $100 and the application kits for 20ish

Killing surface rust - depending how deep, use kill rust then spray over with underbody spray i would have thought

Ended up getting tintmart, good bloke was a bit more than other places but a higher quality more heat Reducing tint too. Got a product same as POR 15 but slightly cheaper for the rust issues. Cheers for input from those who did!

    • How much ya asking drunkan 
    • A few other things to round out the chassis mechanical checks. Diff is nice and full of new oil, pretty sure it is Castrol VMX (I run the same on Award's recommendation). I didn't pull the cover to check, but I'm 90% sure the diff centre is a nismo mechanical (old school, not the gt pro). Gearbox is also nice and full of fresh oil, not sure what it is but not redline. Tailshaft bearing looks OK and a tailshaft loop is in place
    • Front lower control arm is standard with new ball joints, tension rod looks like JJR spherical. Front upper control arm is standard with adjustable bushes in the outside end     Rear arms are all nismo, surprisingly all the bushes at either end look standard but in good condition Subframe has standard bushes with lock collars HICAS has a lock bar with standard ball joints at the hub end
    • Next, shocks/springs/swaybars It has Sydneykid valved Bilsteins with HKS pillow ball hats all round. Springs are Eibach race springs on adjustable height platforms, with helper springs in the rear to stop rattling. These are 250 all around but easy to change for something else if required. Swaybars are powdercoated blue but would be Selby's/Whiteline solid adjustables, 21mm rear and 24mm front. Bushes and links in good condition All in good condition, no sign of leaks/damage etc
    • yeah for sure.....remember to put your tools away at the end of each day kids!  Actually it has been kinda nice working on the car, lots of memories of good times. I can pretty much hear him telling me off for stuff still.
