They apply them in situ, I had a guy who I use for all my cars called Capacino tints he comes out and does them at your home.
You're allowed up to a 30% tint on the fronts to stay legal I believe. That's why I went with it on my fronts.
load of bull
every car front has got some degree of tint to the glass 30% will put any car over
but its the time the place to get caught
sometimes its a warning and fine
sometimes a probition notice and fine to make sure you get them off
and then sometimes its a probo fine and 3 points per side
so its a gamble that i dont take anymore.
Can I ask any of you to put photos of your rear screen as one of the things I never liked about tinting was how the heater lines look odd when tinted. Is this still the case ??
I know exactly what you mean about the rear window elements here is a close up they don't look too bad.
This may be a stupid question but does the tinting on the rear window have to go on the inside as this is what causes the effect on the heater lines and this is only on the inside ??
I paid £120 for the rear but as I say I use him for all my cars so that should be discounted, I hope it is anyway lol
Mike did they remove the glass to fit the tints or apply if fitted ??
I can only get quotes of near £300 for doing the rear on mine, anyone know anyone cheaper in the south (reading)?
I had no idea it was that expensive in the UK. What about legislation? Do have to pay anything to make legalize it?
Noticed that a lot of people here saying dark smoke on the back, light smoke on the fronts.
Does putting light smoke on the front push it over the legal limit?
Was thinking of getting it done but now that it's not quite legal... hmm...
No legislation cost, just seems expensive down here vs that you guys are paying elsewhere...
Be cheaper to drive up here and have them done lol no but really is that the cheapest you can get them done down there that sounds like a lot just for rears doing...
That's good, in Portugal we need to pay o legalize them and it costs as much as installing them. 250â¬
