Hey, want to get my windows tinted with some proper stuff.
Anyone know where a good place to go to is thats not over priced.....

I remember back in the day it used to be $250 for my car, but now they want to charge me like $400 :S

I used TINTS manukau, same sort of area as tint-a-car but not the same place

Mint service, awesome job, huge range, cheapest I found as well and came out looking a lot better than some mates that paid more and got them done elsewhere. Have a chat to Junior that works there :)

Tint a car, midnight express. Usually $400, were $345 in May. Excellent service, excellent result, well worth it for heaps of reasons.

Looks like you can get it cheaper tho..... :)

yea $345 to me is a rip off lol when i can buy tint and do my whole car in an hour, and it comes up just as professional as theirs but I cant get that good quality tint so it fades.
