I had a go at tinting the windows on the soarer and ive never done it before so it looks pretty rugged.

I am happy to pay cash/beers for someone to do them for me, the reason i dont want to goto a shop is because they will only want to put on 35% tint wont they? I want 15% which suits my car better.

I will supply the tint film or whatever, so anyone keen for a cashy?

Cheers,
Simon

Why bother? You will just have to rip 15%'s off for your next warrant. Have you considered some of the more bronzed or semi mirror tints (only mildly reflective so tend to pass WoF's)?

Getting a wof isnt an issue. I know the mirror ones you mentioned but i think they look horrible.

ive found that most cops are pretty leniant on tints, as long as your attitude is right. i had 5%s in my car for over a year and never got a ticket.
and its no big drama to re-do your tints every 6 months...

no its simple as just doing it on the car.
problem is people dont use enough water and detergent.
You basically cut the sheet to required size but a bit bigger.
when you peel off the plastic to reveal the sticky side u spary that with the detergent, put heaps on, then put heaps of it on the window, then u place the sheet on the window and place heaps more detergent spray onto the tint and swipe it with a card wrapped in a rag and get out all the detergent that was sprayed on there. cut it with a razor blade so it fits on the window nicely. go over it again and again with detergent and the card until all bubbles are gone then leave it for a day or so.
