Is there such a thing as good quality tinting film for diy ?

I wouldn't bother doing it yourself, its an absolute pain to do - spend the $250 odd it'll cost to get it properly done, because chances are you'll end up doing that anyway.

Ok, so while at lunch there was a tint professor stand at the local westfieled, they quoted $295 for full darkest tint for all glass bar the front with an unconditional lifetime warranty, sounds good but who has had theirs done for less / better quality?

By "bar the front" I assume you mean windscreen. If so sounds like abloody good price to me. I have previously used another firm on Maroondah Hwy Mitcham (cant recall their name) but they have been more expensive than that and that was for my car....

Shop around, they vary in price a lot

Well, I got a trade quote for an Alfa Romeo coupe (early 80's model) and that was about $180. Theres a lot more glass in a Range Rover, so $295 isn't bad at all. Theres a lot of guys doing it though, so do some checking - make sure its got a long warranty though, cause the job should then be done to a much more exacting standard if they don't want to have to replace it on their own bill.

I remember years ago getting quotes of about $450 for the rangie so $295 dosent sound bad, it includes darker tint on the tailgate and adjacent windows to act as a security measure for the cargo area. Lunchtime tomorrow will be spent doing a ring around for other quotes.

Getting done today, $295 payable by 4 monthly payments, pickup my rangie and return by 4pm all done !

good work you will be really happy with the result.

It cost me just on $300 about 4 months ago and I am really happy with the result - I looked at DIY but the material cost was about $120 from memory and I knew if I stuffed it I just couldn't handle it and would have to get someone to fix it - in the end it became one of the simplest jobs I had to do - wallet job (just open your wallet and its done )

Tom

Could do the diy for $110 but with the ezi pay i thought why bother, done in no time ready for this weekend - meant to be 41 on Sunday

Woo Hoo ! got into my rangie after a day of full sun 35c and all windows up and i didnt have to break a sweat driving home !!
