hmmm...
i might get 15% (4x4 vehicles) or 20% (estate vehicles) on the rears and then 70%(legal) or 50% on the fronts
yeh i'm feeling 70% on the front and either 20% or 35% on the rears... £120 is a steel and it takes just an hr to get there from Bath. hope they work saturdays! lol
been told by the main tint people in bristo, that avon and somerset poilce arent bothered by front tints anyways! - manager of tint place told me police officer told him this, also my mate used to have saxo with 35% fronts and limo rear and never got stopped in bath or brizol....
booked for the 9th dec! get in! 54% on the fronts, 35% on the rears...

jammer!
i wanna get mine booked in for next week but my dad is unsure what date he can take the car over...
lol. guy that i spoke to there seems really cool, says he'll have a good talk with me when i go to see exactly what kind of tinting i want so i'm 100% happy, then it should take approx 2hrs :)

wicked!
are you getting the front two done aswell?
i was only gunna get the back three done but think ti will look stupid so i wanna get the front two done maybe now....
well i thought as it only costs £21 extra for the front, may as well do it! its gonna be a very subtle shade on the front two though, and prob medium on the rears :0 dont want nothing too dark - subtle tints are the future! lol

got my tints done today for £120 which was a bragin and the quality of the work is awesome!
they are garenteed for over 3 years i think it is
i got 54% on the front and 22% (or summut) on the rears
theyve made a huge difference :D
just gotta wait for the glue to dry now which takes about 3 days and then they will look even darker!!!!

Shes filthy at the mo!
what percentages you got matey? any side pics??

ah jus looked in your gallery, looks sweet.
i'm going for a lighter tint tho, more subtle (thats my aim)
durhamchance

I'm not sure what the percentages are, tintR talked to me about the names- Ive got light smoke on the front two and dark smoke on the back three.
It took a couple of hours and I love it. I'll never have an untinted car again.
fronts look untinted to me...?

04-01-2007, 21:59

Can see it better in this one:

cnt w8 to see the pics
the tints that they got on their show car are awesome...they are the same as mine i think altho the back of mine might b darker
rite - internet finally working (just!!!) but have kinda had my tints done...
had 23% on the rear screen to be same colour as my sxi rear lights, 35% on the rear sides and was gonna have 54% on the front two but James at the tint place had ran out of it, so gotta go back to have fronts fitted (for just £21!!!)
so far got rears tinted and it looks amazing!!! the guy is a top bloke and did a brill job :) well pleased. will do pics when i've had fronts done as well in about a week's time (and hopefully not p*ssing it down!!)
