Think mine was either 250 or 295 for the darkest they make all the way round. Cept for the windscreen, it's tint free. Supertint on the gold coast.

my advise is not go to the Tint Professor. I got my ford done there and although the job was ok there were some issues with stratches, bubbling and damage in some spots as the material I think is crap...

So for my FTO I talked to Premier Tint who have arange of tints for different costs and also do a neat job at removing any old tint u might have..

The costs form other places is nearly the same...

did u let it fully dry, like for a month?

your not suppose to use your windows for like 2-3 weeks after they've been done

i got my honda done at the tint professor and it was great, despite it being a bit dear - $295 if i rmbred correctly

more recently i went to premier tint, and got a quote for $225 for darkest legal with the best UV protection - was impressed 8)

might get the FTO done in a few weeks time

got my car tinted at premier tint on Monday

cant use my windows for at least 48 hrs :(

darkest legal, the 'elite' package.

Was $295, got it down to $225 :D

I must say though, after tinting the car, makes hella a lot of difference to the appearance of the FTO. More... sporty and aggressive :twisted:

How did they go with the back window? Mine still hasn't settled up the top with the mesh stuff...however they reckon it will after a month or so.

u mean the silicon dots?

ye, the guy was saying that with some cars, the tint will stick, and with some others, they're just a b*tch

atm though, it seems to be holding on pretty good, so I say im one of the lucky ones :P

when i got the rear tinted, it was actually a bit of a fiddle, becos i got a rear windscreen wiper - and taking it off was an absolute hassel (didnt end up taking it off, but carefully tinted around it). Am quite impressed actually, everything looks A1

Chu coming to the cruise this sunday right? We can exchange results then :wink:
