Oh right, sorry forgot about that :( Well, i guess $295 is still a fairly good price then! :)

Comment when you get it done, maybe some pics too? :p

I think mine cost $230 from tints-r-us, I wanted darkest legal and he said he could do it darker but no, I insisted on legal... don't want to leave anything up to chance. Comes with lifetime warranty and they did a bloody good job, just note that sometimes places will tint over stickers which happen to be on the back quarter windows or whatever so you may want to get them off with a razor before the job gets done (or just ask them), wifes car has the tint over the security system sticker designed to scare 90's thieves.

Oh and don't clean the tinted side with windex, apparently it'll destroy it.

Yes, no windex on tints. It's best just to use a lint free cloth. Or at worst armor all that isn't amonia based.

As for stickers, good places will remove them first as part of it!

On Main North Road there's Complete Windscreens I think it is, I've had 3 cars done there and haven't had any problems so far.

The VE was done shortly after getting it, from memory that was $210 or $220 in whatever percent you were after.

They did a terrible job on my VN and a terrible job on my nans Mazda 121. To the point I had to take it to Auto Perfection further down on the other side of the road and get them to re-do it all.

I have 2 cars VZ sv8 6 litre and VU ute 5.7 litre
Hi all, have trawled the search function but most of the posts on this were fairly old, so just wanted to see if anyone had any new info. Am looking at getting my VY tinted at Tint a Car with Midnight express (darkest you can legally go). They have quoted me $295.00 for the entire car. Reasonable?? I am in SA so if anyone knows anywhere else that does good quality dark tinting some numbers would be handy.

Cheers

I went 5% on my ute and you cant see through the windows at all, what we did is put 2 layers of tint on, looks magic. O.K. its note quite legal but what mods are these days. :whistling

How many guys with 5% tinting get looked at by the cops? Do they even care? More to the point, would they care if it were a P platers car?
