Show me your tints.

[dub envy 0]

I had my windows tinted today. 35% on the sides, and 50% on the rear screen.

 

I havent seen many rados on here with tints but there must be a few. I'll post pics of mine once I've cleaned all the mank off the car (baby powder and soapy water marks).

 

I'm not sure if mine are too dark. :? I'm concerned that I may have wasted my money on the 35%... thinking maybe I should've gone 50% all round.

50% is illegal nowadays afaik

[dub envy 0]

I'm fully aware of the legalities.

 

You the Corrado-forum police or something??

 

Do you have window tints? Do you have pics to show me?

 

Anything over the stock 70% standard glass tint is illegal, I know.

 

Why dont you go and give flamer boy some grief.

Tinters make you fully aware of the law before they tint your car or even when they quote you.

 

Yes I'm moody after having to sweat it out in a shed load of traffic on the way home from the meet. M25 shut + blazing heat + not being able to open my front windows for 7 days = one very miserable Rob.

 

So.

 

Any pics anyone?

[dub envy 0]

Is that just the rear quarters, phat? or is the drop glass like it too? Cant really tell in that pic.

chromy business 8)

 

My tints are rear only,they were on the car when i got it and they are weird. :? i cant find an end to the tint film (if it is film) and im sure there are little vw signs in it :? (not the glass ones either although,may have been drinking)

 

 

edit:sh|te pics :roll:

[dub envy 0]

I've looked at many a pic of your car and never realised it was tinted! Looking at it now they look about as dark (or light) as mine. You dont like them?

[Riley 0]

nah,i like em m8 8) !

spot on i reckon,not too obvious without looking like a possible standard feature of the car,yet dark enough to look the part?

 

edit:just read that back to me self and i dont understand it. :lol:

Radostormvr6, what % are those? They look about the same as mine. Somehow yours look good yet I'm not 100% sure about mine. Maybe in time they will grow on me.

 

Furks, have to leave them up for 7 days to let them dry. L&M tinting from Leicester did them.

gatwick auto shades down here are regarded as one of the best and you can start using them straight away... bizarre

How much do they charge? I was quoted £450+VAT from Pentagon in Acton. west London. L&M charged me £180

 

A mate had his car done at in sutton at a place I cant remeber the name of, and he had to leave his windows up for 7 days too...

[Furkz 0]

£220 im getting mine done soon as they get the film i want :wink: you shoulda said mate their sh1tt hot

[Furkz 0]

alsoi hope they put a lot of felt on the front runners?

[dub envy 0]

none. I think my passenger window is already scratched from when they put the windows down to put the trim back on.

[StormchargedVR6 0]

Mine were done by Pentagon four years ago, they are light smoked,don't know what % they are, never been stopped yet. 8)
