Just had my Tints done by Mr Tinter & Co... Very Impres

Post by Josh_PoloGTi »

Hi All

I've just got back from having my windows tinted by Tinter...

Photos to follow tomorrow, but I just thought I'd say how impressed I am with the work!

Cheers Tinter!

Hi Aaron

I had 50% on the sides and 35% on the rear screen.

Looks very subtle, but you can tell it's been done.

Fantastic price and fantastic quality of workmanship

Here are my photos from yesterday:

This is why I love AND hate living out in the Peak District!

My rear screen - 35% Tint

The art of cutting the tint to shape...

Image
...and sticking it in place!

Image
Pre-Shrinking Gary's rear screen tint after cutting to fit (this is done on the outside, before being stuck to the inside of the window).

Gary's rear screen finished!

Gary's dirty, but tinted car!

Looks good! But yeah, not as dark as I was expecting you'd go for, especially as the GTi had darker tints... at least you won;t get pulled by the boys in blue eh? :wink:

Looks good! But what's up with the difference in color on the front bumper?

(Could be just the angle messing it up)
