Tinted Windows

Post by Mytqik »

I would just like to give a free plug to local business. I turned up to Ben's place just to enquire how much to do the windows.

He gave me a great price & when I asked when could he do it, he offered to work late & do it there on the spot.

Ben did a great job and only charged me $100 for the entire job. Comes with a lifetime guarantee too. He gave me the option of the darkness of tint (for no extra cost) & informed that 35% is the legal limit & anything less is illegal.

I have attached some photos of the finished product.

I can not recomend him highly enough, just hope that I can help him get some follow on business:

Ben & Lee Window Tinting
36 Kingsmill Rd,
Coalfalls 4305
07 3812 0941
0422 675 210.

(I would like to add that I am in no way connected to this business & receive no benifits from this business)

I can recommend someone in melb south east if anyone intersted. He runs a Tint-a-car shop but does it from home as well. I don't think he'll do darker than legal though. Warranty, receipt and cheaper than anyone else. I send everyone to him so have seen lots of his work over the years.

There is a glare strip across the top 3" of front screen. It does help, plus it will make the white outerlimits sticker really stand out against the dark back ground.

Looks like I will be giving this bloke a call when I get some cash, last quote I had was $450 but that was cause I said it was a "range rover" - you will be amazed how much that can add to a job :roll:

Pr*cks

Nice results on you truck and I want a strip on the top of my windscreen too.

my melbourne guy was around $200 in any darkness you want, for a lwb GQ. lifetime warranty, and he can mix it up too, I got 20% all round, and 35% (legal) on the front 2 doors. cant pick it from outside, and it is still legal.
