Tints

Post by ziyaad »

Does anyone know of any good tinting places in North London? I've found a place that will do my whole 5 door for 170 in Palmers Green. I've seen the tints on other cars as well and theyre really good quality. Does anyone know any better?

Cheers

tinting place in palmers green, not the one near A406 is it where the old hand car wash was? thats where i got mine done! mine was 5 door too, they charged me less tho cuz i went there through group-buy, got bunch of my mates together, all went to them and they knocked the price down! :D the quality of their work is really good, had no complaints from me or any of my mates.. they tint right up to the window edges and sand it down to smooth it out, also tint right down behind doors cards, they can even tint rear lights and do sunstrips! I've seen bad tint jobs where rear windows had air trapped in where the wires are, not the case with these guys.. maybe you could arrange a group-buy through here, i might know few ppl who wanna do it?

Think the legal limit is 35% on the front side windows and you can do the three back ones limo if you like.

yea the legal limit for the front windows is something like 30-35%, I did find out at the time of fitting them but can't remember now? :? i went with one tint level all round, i didn't want totally black but having said that once they were on they looked really dark! :shock: it said greylight on the packaging?! police did question me once about them but i told him i knew what the limit was so he assumed they were legal, when they're slighty not...
