Looking verrrrry nice.

Both sun visors down? I can see a tinted visor from DMB being fitted before long.

As far as i know, nobody has been able to match the perf blue colour in vinyl and have opted for black.

Nope but I do (darkest tint he had & internally fitted)... I think its nicer than the standard vinyl ones people get because its see through & for one I can still see the traffic lights well I pull up at them lol







Course as the tinting man said (to cover his ass) it is strictly speaking illegal as the wiper blades go over it on the wipe but meh.. she's gone through 2 MOTs since it was fitted and hasnt failed & I've never been pulled

I put a light smoke on the front which lets in 60% light and I think the law says it has to be able to let in 70% light to be legal at the front. Oh well see how it goes passed a few rozzers since not been pulled x

I really like the sun strip did you just get a window tint company to do it? How much did they charge?

A lot of members from here, including myself, have used this company.
If you don't see what you want on his site, simply phone him up, you need to speak to Dave the owner of the company, mention that you are a member of this site for some discount, and just tell him what you are after.

I had full dark smoke tint on my 04 mini cooper and never had an issue with the "BACON", dont give them a reason to notice u, ie speeding or driving like a prat.

Enjoy
