I don't want them to bake my windows in an oven.
I just want them to apply the tint the DIY way... without getting it wrong. £50 per window is hardly "great".0 -

so you want it done for next to nothing, firstly the film itself isnt that cheap to buy,then you want someone trained and skilled to do work for you for peanuts.
why dont you go on a course and learn how to do it,then you could undercut the guys who already do it and make a fortune,or not?...work permit granted!0 -

The film IS cheap, when you buy it wholesale it's about 1 metre for £1... Besides I've just got a quote from a respectable shop for £75... will check if it will go lower.0 -

I always think people with tinted windows must be drug dealers or gangsters.0

Psst! Want some gear?!
:D
I've got tints on our MPV and they are brilliant. It even makes the bus look cooler if that's remotely possible. :eek:
Reasons for having them:
(1) Young kids and babies are generally more photosensitive to sunlight. Our two monsters used to crane their necks in awkward positions to get away from the light.
(2) Privacy and security - you can't see our DVD screens in the back and if I have to carry something valuable or lots of luggage in the car then it's hidden.The man without a signature.0 -
i was quoted £263 for all window's not sure if that included the front, doubt it.
He said would take about 6 hours and would be baked in oven, proper job!!0 -

Or get someone to cut a big air intake vent into the front of your bonnet.
