Right now my car has 35% front and 18% rear tint. I don’t like it because it looks to be titanium or metal based tint. It has a lot of green reflection to it. Kind of like silver sunglasses but greenish. A few years ago that was the top of the line stuff, it reflects light and VU rays very well but I don’t like the look of it. My old car had a dyed tint, dyed tints will fade quicker and will can purple over time but I liked the look of it better. It was black looking, or black tinted looking. Mine was 7 years old and the purple colour just began to become noticeable.

My uncle just got his windows tinted by a guy that we have used or recommended 9 or 10 times. The tint on his car is a metal based (I believe) tint, it is not nearly are greenish as my tint but still to green for me. I asked the tint guy for something less green but he said that, that all of his tint from that manufacturer is greenish.

--------------
So I am going to removed the tint on my Z and get it redone with a Charcoal Dyed Film, this will look black not green. I have been looking around and I am going to go to Audio Heaven, I had my alarm installed here they also do allot of business with The Toronto Civic Club. Feedback has been good. I went and spoke with Jeff the owner and explained my expectations.

The web site says

Solargard HP True Grey Metalized Window Film
Starting at $179.99- Lifetime Warranty

Solargard NR Charcoal Dyed Film
(A Dyed Window Base Film )
Starting at $199.99- Lifetime Warranty

But its $189 on the TTC forum and they quoted me the same.
2 door cars are $189
4 door cars are $199


We may be able to get a few bucks off if we group buy this, is anyone else looking to get their windows tinted?

Let me know

I don't want my widows tinted (I actually took my tint off my car) but I've dealt with Jeff on a few occasions and he's a good guy to go to. Very customer focused.

 

definitely a plan that I have not carried out for a very long time. I also want a black tint and not a greenish one. I am down. I got my 01 prelude tinted by the tint king on queensway and kipling area about four years ago and the price was pretty much the same as you are being quoted. Please let me know.

 

cant commit till i know the prices but ill be needing a tint soon, got my x5 tint at ting king steels or w.e close 2 hwy 7...

let me know on msn if they willing to bend over for group buy. also i dont think ill need top of the line tint, i think i had basic in the x5 and i was happy with it.. paid about 200 or so

 

i got my tints done on all my cars with audio heaven....great guy ask for pablo to do the tint...He actuall won titnting competitions

 

FX auto is the shop of choice for most of us.. I plan on going back for tint on my current zed.

You own an x5?

 

35s way too light... you should go darker because they lighten up with time. I have 35 of my daily driver and 15 on my civic. the civic's tints look much better.

 

agreed.. 35% is much too light.. I had 30% on my last zed and it def not dark enough..
I am going for 25% sides and 20% rear this time around..

 

I just moved to nova scotia and removed all of the tint including my front windshield. They seem to frown upon tinted rides here in halifax. I will miss the look

 

No, my parents..

 

Add you name to this list if you are interested, once I find out how many people are interested I can talk to them about a discount.

I am sure they offer I higher level tint but this would cost more, add you name and info anyway though. I am looking at this tint because it does not have the greenish tint to it.

how did you get a e-mail?

 

there are cheaper places than that, but it depends on what brand tint they use. there are many different quality of tint. Audio heaven uses Solar Gard, i know this because they say and i also called Solar Gard, they sell to Audio heaven.



I spoke with Solar Gard about this, the NR Charcoal Dyed Film is black looking, the HR Charcoal Dyed Film has a tiny bit of green in it. They higher non dyed tints have more green in them. Ultra Performance, HP Quantum, HP Supreme, Supreme
