    Yeah and that would be the last time I would use them or refer anyone to them. I didn't want to argue with "Mr Cool" about his worksmanship as he doesn't think there is anything wrong with his work.

    They get all defensive when you question their work and point out the faults.

      It match perfectly which is the reason i lean towards Midnight Express over tint films offer by Tint Professor.

      The tint is basically darker if you compare them, as for workmanship Tint Professor are much better off. I also suspect the type of tint that being used (thickness) which can determine how well the tint can fitted without gap which Tint Professor did brilliantly on their workmanship.

      I see how it go next week with the shop owner before I start exposing his location.

        He did my 6R Polo GTI and it looks a treat. Quality job and no issues whatsoever.
        +10.

        I used Rob's services on my R, not a problem. Really nice person and excellent workmanship.

        Too Happy.

              I could tell you, but then it'd be misleading. There are numerous factors:
              • Repeat businses to start with
              • Type of car
              • Even number of doors and body style
              • Whether he comes to you or you go to him
              • If he comes to you, how far is it
              • The make and model of the film (not all film costs the same etc
              • Probably other things I can't think of right now


              What I can say is this:
              Rob is the most competent window tint specialist that I have ever met or witnessed working on the car, and his price was also the best that I've ever heard of or seen for the quality of the installation and film being used.

              On top of this, he's a great guy and a car/bike enthusiast, so "waiting" for my car to be tinted was actually quite a pleasant experience.

                • I've never used him (but will when my car arrives)

                  But every forum I have been on Rob's name keeps on coming up as the person to go to for excellent quality tinting.

                      So Rob has a shop in North Ryde and Hunters Hills?

                      I'm absolutely sold in taking my business to Rob or Martin (when i get my GTI)

                      Just a question out of curiosity - In terms of tinting the windows for the front doors, do they physically have to take the door panel apart - ie how do they do it?

                        He has a workshop in the garage at properties in North Ryde and Hunters Hill. He can also come to you. It just depends on how busy he is and what's most convenient for the majority of customers on that day/week.

                        They don't have to day apart the door panel. The MK6 has been designed to allow tint to easily be installed.

                              He said he had a few coming in over the next few days.

                              Getting mine done soon. Trying to work out whether to go front only or all round.

                              • Well... this is the wrong thread for asking those types of questions (whether to do the front only or all around etc, what type of tint to get to match as best as possible etc).

                                All of that discussion is in the MK6 Front Tint to match factory 'Dark Tint' option thread.
                                Specifically in relation to my Golf R and experience having it tinted by Rob at Hunters Hill Tint (at North Ryde), I have this post. But I have several more posts burried in that thread on various tint topics/questions.

                                Pepe's experience with the Golf R and Rob is also documented in my post and on the previous page to my post.
