Tinting

Does anyone know of a Tinting place in Vancouver that I can get my RX8 done at?

I seen a silver RX8 on the #1 few days ago that had it done and it looked sweet.

Not entirely sure how much it would cost so if anyone has any ballparks I would appreciate it.

did mine with Onyx tint, 20% rear 3, 35% front 2, 400

If you go cheap brands, they end up looking like all those cars out there with bubbles, and purple looking tint, hehe

also if you go huber optice, its easier to see through, more expensive, but the same type of uv protection

Mine was done at the place next to Boyz Club on Minoru, I dont remember the name. If you want to check on the job they did, let me know when you want to see it, and we can meet up for you to get an idea.

Brand type does matter Rohit, just like everything else in the world, if its a lower end brand, you get what you pay for, you got lifetime warranty, good, different people get different things, look at all the cars out there that have crappy tint, look at the bubbling, and the color and tell me that isnt crappy cheap tint.

FYI, tinting on the sides is illegal so keep that in mind as you pass through checks

Yup, I have had cops checking it out, and they havent said anything, the best way to make it not quite so obvious though, is making sure that the back is real dark, and the front 2 are light in comparison, and they dotn seem to mind so much.
It is surprising how many cars I see out here with all the windows tinted dark, and no one seems to complain.
