Illegal Tint

[r33cruiser]

nice. so all the points and sides have been discussed....not much else to say

[Col-GTSX]

You reckon it was that good Col-GTSX ? Got a pic ?

Yeah im happy with it, i mean it provides a nice look to the car and reduces the heat very well then on the inside on has the slightest tint looking out...

So its sorta the best of both worlds, looks heavy and dark outside and nice and light on the inside...

It covers me needs and im very happy with the tint...

PS> My cameras are at work, but ill get a pic soon...

Col where did you get it done and how much did it cost you? Do you have contact info for "Tint Mart" ??

[Col-GTSX]

There is about a dozen tint marts round SEQ and NSW.

www.tintmart.com.au

I went to strathpine as it was closest to me.

Cost was $350, called around and none of them were willing to do it any cheaper as they are the exclusive agents in Australia for this film...

(I actually paid $330 as i had a discount voucher from the last car i had them tint for me)

There is one at Browns Plains ill go check it out after work one day this week.

Darkest legal tint is actually not as dark as you would expect. It's very easy to see through and at night its not *that* difficult to see through but it certainly makes things harder.

My skyline has what I *think* is factory darkened glass (or is it tint), under Victorian laws its ok if its factory (rear windscreen and the quarter panels (I think thats there name, the ones behind the passenger/driver side windows).

Also under Victorian law the tint is supposed to be the same % all round, I had a lot of tinter's tell me otherwise. Vicroads has this info, I assume there is an equivalent in Queensland

Good luck.

+1 for just a little darker than legal, if you go crazy have it black as bleck then expect to get picked up, or atleast have trouble seeing out the side windows at night.

Wouldnt mind seeing pics of the stuff your talking about though col, sounds good

Im not saying its a good thing or if its a bad thing.

i have not had any issues with tint @ all.

i have 16% light tint on my skyline.... it looks shit hot @ day... at night its difficult to drive thats for sure...

I always have windows open in my car for personal preference.. i like the wind.

I personally have not been pulled over once.. possibly as my windows are always down.. and i have had insurance claims made for my car, in which the windows did not have any effect on my claim.

I can tell you, getting the 16% tint was cheaper for me than getting legal tint.

Also since my car is black, and has very black tint.. it looks shit hot
