PM user Yaah31 if you are NOR, he lives in Mount Helena, just got his done like 3 weeks ago, but i forget who by. The guy did a really good job and only charged $250 to do his car which is a 4 door, so will be cheaper seeing you have a coupe. Yaah31's car looks awesome now though!

Yeh dainsdabomb is good too, seen some of his stuff on some other Skylines, but he isn't mobile, you have to take your car to him. He quoted Yaah31 $250 as well, same as the the other guy except the other guy came to Matt

Maybe call TKO and ask them.

The only information in the Road Traffic (Vehicle Standards) Rules 2002 is :

Window tinting

(1) Glazing used in a windscreen of a motor vehicle must have a

luminous transmittance of at least —

(a) for a motor vehicle built after 1971 — 75%; or

(b) for another motor vehicle — 70%.

(2) Windscreen glazing of a motor vehicle must not be coated in a

way that reduces its luminous transmittance.

(3) However, subrules (1) and (2) do not apply to the greater of the

following areas of a windscreen —

(a) the area above the highest point of the windscreen that

swept by a windscreen wiper;

(b) the upper 10% of the windscreen.

(4) Glazing used in a window or interior partition of a motor

vehicle must have a luminous transmittance of at least 70%.

(5) Glazing in a window other than the windscreen may be coated

to achieve a luminous transmittance of not less than 35%.

(6) Glazing that has been coated to reduce its luminous

transmittance must not have a reflectance of over 10%.

(7) The luminous transmittance requirement in subrule (5) applies

to a vehicle instead of the corresponding requirement in the

relevant ADR.

(8) In this rule —

glazing means material fitted to the front, sides, rear or interior

of a vehicle, through which the driver can see the road, but does

not include a coating added after manufacture of the material;

luminous transmittance, for glazing, means the amount of light

that can pass through the glazing as a percentage of the amount

of light that would be transmitted if the glazing were absent.

AFAIK it's only light transmission (ah see above post :down:) so in theory colour wouldn't matter.

Of course, there's also the issue re 'mirror' tint or reflective films and light tranmission. The police can use a device which measures light transmissions through the windows...not sure if most cops use it or just yellow you to make you go to the trouble.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
